    I’m particularly enjoying this one, because I just started fostering a dog named Grace–and it took me only 24 hours to decide to adopt her. :)

    1/16/22 posted two photos bc you cannot see Grace in the one with my bike. Found on 2926 N Edison St Arlington on a sweet house with pale lavender paint job and wisteria vines along front wall

    Faded but not forgotten – this is the last part of the “Chalk-in for Allie” art that remains visible on the street at 14th and Irving NE – the remnants of the “Build Safe Streets” chalk paint outline.

    Here’s what it looked like last month, shortly after the event.

    Ocotillo by Howard Kalish

    This sits in the middle of a busy roundabout, but I played frogger to get closer and take better photos. You’ve inspired me, Boomer. The sculpture’s flowers are softly illuminated at night.

    I almost always get those “I needed that yesterday” moments! By the way, the LFL’s here need you…

    Tree mural on the side of the mall where I didn’t find the dumpling place (but it’s there, Komorebi says [emoji2358])

    Without getting into all of the gory details, a pig flying seemed to encapsulate the difficulty I had getting out today. This is at Butcher’s Alley, 4961 Bethesda Avenue, Bethesda, MD 20814.

    Armillary Sphere, Willoughby Park, Friendship Boulevard and Willard Avenue, Chevy Chase, MD

    The armillary sphere is an ancient timekeeping device, although this one is intended as art rather than being functional. The birds flying around the top represent time flying.
