Courts and Money

The Supreme Court of the United States...... This is the third pillar of America's federal government. It wasn't until 1929 that the Chief Justice and the former President of the United States, William Howard Taft, was able to persuade Congress to give the court its own home. We went on a very interesting tour in this building.
John and I outside the Supreme Court Building.

Looking inside the Supreme Court chambers.


Statue honoring John Marshall Supreme Court Justice. Marshall dominated the Court for over three decades and he was the longest Supreme Court Justice in history.
Yes, we went to the Bureau of Printing and Engraving. How tall are you in $100 bills???? John is $1,631,00.00 tall!!!!!!!!!
