North And South

There's a spot just West of the Washington Monument that is on a line connecting the White House and the Jefferson Memorial. This is the view from that spot. Move left or right very far off this spot and trees obscure the view. And it's on a bit of a rise. Go too far North or South and you loose sight of one or the other. I don't think Obama can sit in his office and watch the tourists come and go at the Jefferson memorial.
