We saw this while walking along Washington Channel looking at the cherry blossoms. It’s easily the best-looking tour boat I’ve seen around here.
The grassy parts along Washington Channel near Hains Point were filled with these tiny blue flowers when we went down to see the cherry blossoms.
There are two huge magnolia trees along our usual walk through Rock Creek Park. Oliver loves to play with the pile of sticks under the trees, giving me some time to take a few photos before he makes a run for the road or the creek.
I got a 50/1.4 Canon autofocus lens for Christmas. I prefer the feel of old manual lenses, but for following kids and cats around auto is the way to go. I also have a nice 28-135 auto zoom lens, but the 50/1.4 lets me get a lot of shots without using an obnoxious flash.
We went to Williamsburg after Christmas. We’ve gone once before, so maybe it’s a tradition? These kitties were hanging out near the visitor center – looked like they were waiting for their regular feeding.
