spring awakening

it's been a long winter of gray days, salty streets, and frozen earth. But here, finally, is Spring!


a sea of daffodils on 16th


flowering plum on V Street


the year-round tulips of U Street


Cherry blossoms at the corner of U and MLK


the MLK snowballs: Bradford Pears in full bloom


forsythia on Pleasant Street


the bud before the bloom...


a new street tree, its leaves yawning and stretching to life


even the weeds (and the bugs) are waking up


more cherry blossoms, just below Cedar Hill

Thanks to all who have beautified the neighborhood with flowers, trees, and dirty fingernails. It's what keeps us coming back.
