Not many photo opportunities when you’re quarantined, except the view out the window. But what a nice view it is:

DC Sartorial Style   2 comments

Washington, DC is a place where tie clips are still a thing, where bow ties are still worn in seriousness, and where men still wear fedoras.

Cherry Blossom Time!   Leave a comment

Walked to the Mall after work on Friday and captured these photos. A wonderful time to be in DC, except this year it’s unseasonably cold. Nevertheless, the water’s edge was packed with tourists (i.e. camera-toting) and locals (i.e. picnicking).

Sign of the booming economy in the DC area. I was struck by the angles of this view of a construction site in McLean, VA.
