We woke up yesterday to Nature's idea of an April Fool's joke---two fresh inches of snow. I took a few photos in our yard in the morning. As I was driving home from volunteering later in the afternoon, I decided to stop and take a walk down Mt. Hope Ave. The sun was out, the sky was blue, and there was some potential for a few good shots. First, three from our front yard.
Looking to the West
Looking to the East
And my usual favorite, a snow covered hydrangea.
About four hours later walking down Mt. Hope Avenue:
From a distance
Closer
View #1
View #2: probably my favorite of the walk; I love the white branches against the bright blue sky
And two photos of Mt. Hope Cemetery. Founded in 1838, it was the first municipal cemetery in the United States. It covers 196 acres and has over 350,000 graves. It's famous as the resting place of Abolitionist Frederick Douglass and Susan B. Anthony, known for her work in the women's suffrage movement.
My understanding is that our free time is very limited while I'm in Washington, D.C. but I'm hoping to find enough time to add one or two more photowalks to my collection while I'm there.
