A completely random post featuring photos from my trip to DC

I went to DC and I don't know why everyone stared at my feet...
I don't know why you're staring at my feet.

While there, I took some photos for you. Not just of me and my big feet. But of colors seen in the fall...

Of murals I saw in the making...
I see something new every day

Of the completely inspiring new MLK monument...

I sought advice from the Psychic Rooster...

Marveled at the sites, and yes I took this photo and it's not just a postcard I bought...
This is not a postcard: I really took this photo

Reflected on the thoughtfulness that the beds in front of the USDA federal building are edged in edibles: parsley...

Laughed at the ladyfingers...

Learned how cacao is grown (weird, huh?!)...
Cacao!

Decided we need to have these signs on all of the streets in Portland in response to gas powered lawn machines...
Keep it down, will you?

And discovered my nephew is a farmer.

Completely random photos, for you, my dear readers. If only I had photos from Kabob Palace and Amsterdam Falafal, this post would be complete.

That cacao is the craziest thing! I will never look at a chocolate bar the same way. And your nephew's cheeks are so smoochable! What a cutie.
