Quarantine Diary 34. Ruth and I spent a happy day wandering along the Potomac River waterfront and in Old Town, Alexandria VA.
As my old friend and former mayor of the city, the honorable Allison Silberberg puts it "Alexandria is a national treasure."
The only downside was a few pro-Tr*mpf people observing a boat rally on the river. They seemed both odd and dispirited. They were certainly vastly outnumbered by the happy and diverse folks strolling by.
We had a lovely day. A blessing.
From around Washington DC.
These buildings are on Florida Avenue at Trinidad Street NE, and in the 4600 block of 14th Street NW.
Another quiet week coping with the COVID-19 pandemic.
Ruth finished her beautiful and challenging puzzle, and we went to a socially-distanced latin music performance at twilight by Alfredo Mojica and friends at Reston's Lake Anne Take A Break summer concert series (which recently resumed. -thanks to Miles Stiebel of MSE Productions).
Our granddaughter Adele and her mom, Marjorie came for a short visit recently. We spent time walking on several trails, seeing Greatgrandma Martha, and had a picnic at Kenilworth Aquatic Gardens in DC.
And of course, there was the fairy forest. Shhhhhhhhh.
