What excellent American urban planning was planned and executed in the preservation of this meandering creek through this huge swath of land down the middle of this federal city known as Rock Creek Park.

All urban cities should enjoy such. Thanks Prince for reminding us of this part of the beautiful life.

passing through the park is like a brief break from DC.

That sign: El Catrin meets El Gallo.

i drive through the park to get to work…
it’s a nice little sanctuary, sandwiched between the stress of getting from 14th to 16th street, and everything i have to deal with after!

Je ne said quoi

Thanks for highlighting the chicken-dandy! When I walked by here the other day, I didn’t notice the bird, but I did notice the grammatical error on the sign (uh-oh!)

It says, “Pollo a ala brasa” instead of just “a la brasa”

Not the biggest deal in the world, just something that I happened to see.

I’ve been appreciating the actual creek for a long time, and it IS looking fantastic, PoP. It’s lost a little weight around the middle and really punched up its wardrobe this Fall. Seems to be taking its meds, too, because it was in a really good mood when I stopped by yesterday with my kids. Best of all, NPS finally invested in digital, surround-sound audio, so it sounds awesome! Anybody who hasn’t checked it out for a while definitely should. It’s free! Thanks for pointing it out.
