Celebrating Mr. Columbus
Whatever the controversial founder may or may not have discovered, I am thankful for the Monday off and took full advantage of a gorgeous, fall weekend here in DC. Here are some highlights of a weekend bike trip up Rock Creek Park and to visit a few sites. The fourteen-mile trail was filled with bikers, walkers, and joggers out enjoying the sunshine and crisp air. We stopped to rest along the way and stopped to see the new Martin Luther King, Jr Memorial, breeze through the Roosevelt Memorial and sit by the Tidal Basin. A perfect day in the Capital--I can't resist sharing the day with all of you!
