As promised yesterday, here are some pictures of Grant’s Tomb from my weekend exploration with SFS. The General Grant National Memorial, the largest tomb in North America, is a mausoleum containing the bodies of Ulysses S. Grant, the 18th President of the United States, and his wife, Julia Dent Grant. Located at 125th Street and Riverside Drive, the Memorial is next to the Hudson River and also houses artifacts from Grant’s life. The inside of the memorial is HUGE, with beautiful ceilings and slightly creepy bronze busts surrounding the caskets. If anyone asks you "Who is buried in Grant's tomb?", you can respond by saying no one- it's a mausoleum! Here are some pics that I took... enjoy!

Monday and Grant's Tomb
Happy Monday everyone! I had the opportunity to take a walk at lunch and visit the Apple store- the weather is amazing: sunny with a slight breeze. I’m so grateful to have a window in my office where I can enjoy pretty days like this one!
