Because there is no such thing as too many lovely cherry blossoms! There were people out, after all I was running the Haines Point and Tidal Basin loop too, but it was nothing like the usual peak cherry crowds. Park policy had one of the main roads blocked which was doubtless also reducing the number of people in the immediate Tidal Basin area.
A personal blog to communicate with friends and family. I moved from rural Halfway, Oregon, to Washington DC in August (2011) to start a new job. This is the chronicle of my move and adventures in our nation's capitol.

Saturday Morning - March 21
The coronavirus pandemic and social distancing inspires me to reach out to friends and family in other ways. I've been calling family more and I'm inspired to share photos of what I'm seeing in DC. You'll probably see more posts and photos from me for a while.

Cherry Blossom Pictures - March 19
Here's a batch of cherry blossom photos from Thursday evening. During this coronavirus pandemic I'm lucky to live near the Tidal Basin cherry blossoms. I can walk or run past them every evening while maintaining outdoor social distancing.
