Yesterday after having an incredible time at breakfast breaking bread with a dear blogger friend (or Penguin in this case), we walked the banks of the tidal basin to take in the texture of full Cherry Blossom.
Monumental Blossom
Only to arise early today that we might jet down the coast for a tasty lunch by the southern sea.

“Live Love Laugh” were the words that Fearsome left behind in the temple of Burning Man. Wherever I am may I always remember to pause, be grateful and to Live Love Laugh.
Fearsome Beard 
isn’t the penguin a DEAR? I knew you would like him; his husband (jay) is so cute and witty!
much warmer in FL than up here. wish WE had cherry blossoms, or ANYTHING colorful blooming. 😦
Sounds like a fun day!
THANK YOU, it was wonderful meeting you two in person (or should it be three, counting THE BEARD?) Let me know when you are back in town, I will try to get to SD sometime.
Oh my word. I thought that second picture was a painting at first. It is striking.
What a splendid encounter for the both of you !
