52 Weeks of Urban Nature, Week Sixteen: Cherry Cherry Edition

Washington, DC (c) Megan Draheim, 2016

It was cherry blossom season in DC! One of my favorite times of year. I say “it was” because I am in fact several weeks behind in posting these photos. I’ve been taking them, just not processing and posting them. But I will get caught up soon!

I’ve written about our cherry blossom season before, and it is really one of my favorite traditions — lovely for both locals and tourists alike. I prefer the trees on the Tidal Basin for many reasons (mainly the history behind them and my own personal traditions), but the entire DMV region has adopted this spring-time ritual, so there are other places to stroll around without quite the same crowds.
