June 2nd 2010

Today's Distance: 59 (45 miles before getting to work, then commute home)

Route: Alexandria, VA to Great Falls National Park, then to work .

Comments: Got up at about 5 after hearing my alarm go off at 4:45 and wondering for 15 minutes if I really wanted to do this. Stuck some extra padding in my bag so that my laptop could take the bumpier-than-usual trail. Key Bridge by about 6:30. Took the C&O canal towpath, staring at Georgetown. Left Great Falls about 7:30-ish. Great water fountain at Lock 10.

After crossing under American Legion Bridge (495-beltway)
I like sunbeams
And Goslings...
And morning light illuminating trees on islands...

And Great Falls (This from Olmstead Island)
Look a little closer, and you see something that is looking closer at something else...

On June 12 Alice(?) and I will ride 100 miles as an incentive to our friends to contribute funds to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. Click here to support us.

  1. I love it when you share what you see. I miss most of the things you spot, even when you point right at them. You take great pictures.
