Oh So Boring…

The trials and tribulations of a man and his life. Tribulations, that's an odd word. Let's blog about it…

Cherry Blossoms 2009

It’s that time of year again here in DC…Cherry Blossom Festival time!  Today was the end of the “peak bloom period” according to the bigwigs at the NPS, and it was a Saturday.  I figured, go early, beat as much of the crowd as you can, and take some pictures:

Washington Monument Crowded FDR Memorial Entrance Flare! Yet Another of the Sun Focus Fun Purty A Bit Close Gnarled Hey, I liked it! Eleanor Eleanor Face-on Beautiful Tree Overhang Vista Lone Duck Sunrise over the Tidal Basin OOF Thos. Jefferson Memorial A Bit White Thos. Jefferson Memorial Lots of Blossoms! Yet More Blossoms Choppy Waves

It was a very nice day, really: sunny, clear skies, not too cold…except, that is, for the wind.  The cold, biting, shiver-inducing wind!  Even The Hat was no relief during the big gusts!

Still, I got in a good walk, took some photos (some of which might even be not-that-bad) and got home safely.  Can’t beat that!
