Glenn is sitting with the statue of his hero Robert E. Simon - the founder of America's foremost new town RESton, VA.

This statue was created by Zach Oxman. Zach is the son of the architect Michael Oxman, under whom Glenn served his architectural apprenticeship in Reston, VA.

This picture was taken in the iconic, and now historic, Lake Anne Village Center.  The late Mr. Simon lived his last decade or so in the penthouse of this Lake Anne tower.
