00:00You will see something that's really going to be beautiful.
00:03And now we're looking at the World War II fountain, because that's also in pretty bad
00:06shape.
00:07On a slightly smaller subject, while Doug was speaking, Department of Interior, he and
00:11his people have done a fantastic job on D.C., D.C. is looking beautiful.
00:16Fountains are almost all open, we had 28 of them.
00:19And we have one in particular, a very long lake, we call it, a reflecting lake, between
00:25the Lincoln Monument.
00:28Nobody's ever seen anything like it.
00:31You take a look at, between Lincoln and Washington, you have the longest, like 2,400 feet long.
00:37That's longer than the tallest building in the world if you set it on the side.
00:40We had 10 major truck dumpsters of garbage taken out, can you believe it?
00:48And we got to work on it, and it was supposed to cost almost 400, think of it, $400 million,
00:54because it's like putting the skin on a skyscraper, but bigger, much bigger.
00:59And we're now covering it with the most beautiful blue, very thick, you think of it as a very
01:06sophisticated form of rubber, no leaks, no problems, and it's beautiful.
01:12It's called American flag blue, that was the color we chose.
01:14And when it opens in a couple of weeks, long before July 4th, we want to have it for July
01:224th weekend, but it'll be long before that, you will see something that's really going to
01:26be beautiful.
01:27And now we're looking at the World War II fountain, because that's also in pretty
01:30bad shape.
01:32It won't leak.
01:32This is far better.
01:34It won't leak.
01:35It'll last for 50 years, maybe 100 years, if they didn't even know.
01:38I said, how long will this last?
01:40Oh, I think you'll get 50 years out of it.
01:42It will be unbelievable.
01:43It's actually exciting.
01:44I want to run over there today, if I can.
01:45You know, I always have a problem with Secret Service isn't in love with my walking along,
01:50checking the sidewalk, the new sidewalk, to see whether or not they pointed it correctly.
01:55I mean there are many people coming back to the grave with my walking…
01:55But today, if you want to see what I want to see, I'll really see.
01:56I'm an interesting Musiker.
01:56I want to keep going through.
