Name that Memorial Part 4: Allergy Style

Today's seven-and-a-half mile run took me past a few memorials and brought back the allergies I worked so hard to get rid of on Wednesday and Thursday. (It's hard to run seven and a half miles in D.C./Virginia and not pass multiple memorials.) Despite allergies, the run was worth it, and the company was excellent (shout out to MJ).

I have selected one memorial for this week's contest. Here are your clues:

1) This memorial features a founding father with legs crossed, leaning his weight on his left hand.

2) This founding father has a bridge named after him near the memorial.

3) This founding father, along with James Madison, is sometimes known as the "Father of the Bill of Rights."

  1. I guessed it...and then looked up to make sure there was a bridge...sad to say I didn't know the true name of the bridge, but my guess was correct. I will let someone else claim the glory though :)

  2. I had no idea that bridge had another name - I won't give it away, because I want everyone to sleuth for themselves - plus you still need a winner!

  3. Haha, but Jay abdicated his position as winner. Ashley, I deem you the winner. I will reveal the answer tomorrow unless someone beats me to it.

  4. And the answer is... George Mason. His memorial is by the Jefferson Memorial, near Ohio Drive.
