The Smithsonia Museum of American History has started a blog. This museum has always been one of my favorites here in D.C., more for its collection than its presentation. The place has badly needed a makeover and new attitude for decades, and it finally has happened. Allegedly. The remodeled museum, closed for two years, opens Nov. 21. The space will include a remodeled Star Spangled Banner viewing gallery, the flag that inspired the writer of the national anthem.
