I’ve been terrible about keeping up with posting about the academy, which is now over. We had a great trip to D.C./Quantico a couple weeks ago. We weren’t allowed to take many photos as obviously, it’s the FBI. However, this is a photo of the forensics lab where all the scientists work. It’s a beautiful building and they’ve already outgrown it.

More to follow about the trip and academy in general…

I love sharing this stuff…thanks as always to Paul.
