A Taste of Spring

It was a beautiful day here in DC today.  The temperature, according to the bank temperature sign was 63 degrees in the dead of winter.  It was a nice day for a walk.  I walked down on the National Mall toward the Washington Monument.  It was a lot less crowded than the last time I walked down there -- on inauguration day.  I had run 4 days in a row, so I was taking the weekend off, but I did walk quite a ways.  I stopped in the National Arboretum, primarily because I had to go to the bathroom.  

I took a few pictures inside.  It's amazing the stuff that we take for granted that are free and just down the street. 

The warm weather brought out the joggers, which also can be fun to look at.  Unfortunately, I didn't get any pictures of them.
