Revisit to Biscayne National Park Feb 12, 2014.

We are here in the Metro Miami-Dade area with our stamping pals the Derry's. We arrived in town today, and picked them up at the airport at about 130- then decided to make the run down to Biscayne.  The weather was threatening all the while, then finally a strong gale front came through, and we got a good rain. 

I picked up the 4 site stamps here, including a bonus I had to ask about, but the volunteer was nice about finding it. 



 They weren't running the boats today, so we just watched the movie and walked around a bit before the rains came.  I did get a hiking medallion, but they didn't have a site pin here, but I had one from my last visit.

Park # 276 First State NM Delaware

Delaware finally gets a National Park-  it was in three locations, Brandywine Park, the Old State House museum in Dover, and also the New Castle Courthouse in New Castle. Got all the stamps at all the locations. 










Another visit that doesn't count- Pinelands National Preserve Sept 4th 2013

I made a quick stop to two locations for the Pinelands National Preserve, the Commission Headquarters and the Brendan Byrne State Forest Office Building for duplicate stamps.  Doesn't "count" since this is an affiliate member-  Counts for me, though.

Star Spangled Banner Stop at American Museum of History on the Mall in Washington DC

Stopped in quickly to secure this location



Washington Monument bookstore visit

There are 24 or more stamps in the Bookstore, and I was able to get two that I had not previously gotten-  Walked here from the Museum of Natural History Stop.  The monument itself is all shrouded while they make repairs and cracks from a recent large earthquake. 








Revisit to Rock Creek Park Nature Center, Washington DC

First stop in Metro DC was a revisit to Rock Creek Park Nature Center, so I could get one stamp that I was missing, it was there in good order. 


Navy Memorial, Washington DC

Last year, I stopped in here to get the stamp, but the building was under construction, or so they said-  this year, the stamp was there, out at the front desk.  Score!
