Evan Eickmeyer told me about one of only 25 remaining copies of the Declaration of Independence is on display at the California Museum (in Sacramento) until 9 October 2005. Since it is unlikely that we’ll be spending time in Washington, DC anytime soon I’m planning to make a family trip to go see this copy. Alice is too young (only 3) to remember something like this later on as an adult, but it will be a good way to talk to her about history.
