Capitols

Bagging Legislative Places!!!!!
I also like to visit state capitol buildings. I have seen quite a few over the years, but for some, I lack photographic evidence. In putting this together, I was surprised to see that in some cases, I had visited the capital (city), but not the capitol (building). (I guess that means some future return visits!) Unlike the summits on the "SUMMITS" page, none of these are so dangerous as to pose a threat to your life! (Thanks to Mike for helping me remember some of the details.)
