Shoes, Ships, and Sealing Wax

Walk in the park

Today was the Help the Homeless Walkathon on the Mall. It's a fundraiser for a variety of organizations in the area that provide services the the homeless as part of their mission...shelters, food banks, job training, foster care.

I took some pictures; clicking on the thumbnails will open a larger popup image. As you can see it is a beautiful day here in DC. I particularly like the shots of the Jefferson Memorial and the Washington Monument...Victor calls these types of pictures "tourist shots," but when you live here you can lose track of why people actually visit as tourists.
