It's cherry blossom time in our nation's capital. And I hadn't been down to see the blossoms in a year or two. So I walked over there on my lunch hour. A four mile walk, just for you.
I'm lucky to live in a city with such serene nature's bounty within walking distance on my lunch hour.
The scaffolding is off the Washington Monument, and they promise to open it back up to the public one day soon.
And the Jefferson Monument on the Tidal Basin is surround by cherry trees. A gift from Japan some decades ago.
Beautiful to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city. If you are a tourist, this is the time to come to DC. Avoid those winter crowds. Join a couple people on the basin by renting a nice paddle boat.
