I
wasn't
familiar
with
this
museum.
But
I
had
gone
to
the
Library
of
Congress,
several
weeks
ago,
and
the
location
appeared
to
be
close.
I
arrived
upon
this
huge
marble
structure.
A
Security
Officer
greets
me
as
I
approach
the
entrance.
I
enter,
I'm
immediately
drawn
into
the
Great
Hall,
to
The
First
Chefs
Exhibit.
After
exploring
that
area,
at
the
adjoining
room,
I
inquired
about
other
areas.
A
very
helpful
Security
Officer,
paired
me
with
a
Docent.
The
Docent
gave
me
a
tour
of
the
Founders'
Room
and
Furnishings.
The
Docent
was
very
detailed
in
her
presentation.
She
pointed
out
the
most
interesting
items
in
the
Founders'
Room.
For
example,
she
relayed
the
history
and
details
of
the
portraits,
the
character's
names
in
the
stained
glass,
the
background
about
the
Folio
on
display.
She
gave
me
ample
time
to
photograph.
I
thoroughly
appreciated
the
tour
and
assistance.
In
another
area,
I
was
able
to
see
the
theater,
which
was
in
rehearsal
for
a
play.
I
was
not
able
to
see
The
Research
Room,
it
required
advance
reservation
for
that
portion
of
the
tour.
Great
tour,
especially
Founders'
Room.
