Saturday's Walk

Finally, a day with no rain! The sky was overcast, yes, but at least IT DIDN'T RAIN. So, what else is Saturday for but a good, solid walk? First across the street past the remnants of the Run For The Cure set-up on the Mall.

It was about a two mile walk from our apartment to the Eastern Market on Capital Hill. (See Becky and Lori - I can walk a long way just not as fast as you!) The Eastern Market was established in 1876 and has been going all that time. It's a great place for just about anything you can imagine.


There is an indoor market with absolutely the best meat and produce in DC - bakery, too.



And, of course, Dan's favorite activity at any street fair is eating. Yes. he is eating here, not preparing to rob a store.



And, we discovered that there is a Metro stop for the Market which we took back to the Smithsonian. Then a very pleasant walk back home which included a stop at one of my favorite places in DC, the National Gallery Sculpture Garden.


All in all, a good Saturday!
