Fords Theatre today

[ReignetteC]

The vigil on Tuesday evening was moving, especially the music and reverence. I was disappointed, however, with the jackhammer and construction activity that, at times, trumped the Wednesday morning ceremonies. (As some of you may know, there is an office building under construction across the street.) According to a park ranger, the construction company had agreed to stop construction during the early morning activities but, as we know, did not. Perhaps they forgot!
