This one was wonderful, a huge jumble of mysterious hunks of stone, much of it overgrown with vines, making me feel like I was discovering a city in the jungle.

The Stone Yard
Today I went to view some features in the woods near Washington that turned out to be nothing. But they were right next to the stone yard for the US Capitol. There are several stone yards around Washington, where odd bits of stone from the monuments are kept, in case they need an extra bench or capital or just a stone like the ones in the walls.
