Diamond Days

Potomac River, high and muddy







Springtime in the Washington D.C. area is pretty special. It can be hard to withstand the cold and grey days of winter. Suddenly though, the temperatures begin to rise, the sunlight starts to intensify. Before long, we are gifted with spectacular crisp, bright blue days. Sometimes it seems we receive only a handful of them before the heavy humidity and heat of summer arrives.

Yesterday was one of those "diamond days," temperatures in the upper 70's and bright blue sky. To any wildflower lovers out there, now is a great time to walk along the Potomac as all the flowers budding right now are either in full display or just beginning to bud...
