Weekend Pass

I think it finally stopped raining here, for a time at least. Weather has been holding up and after much insistence from K and much prodding by me, we took a trip to downtown to DC. First course of action: lunch at the landmark Ben's Chili Bowl. For history fanatics, it was built in 1958 on U street, which was then known as Black Broadway. Despite riots, economic decline, and metro construction, it has remained open to serve half-smokes, chili cheese fries, and milkshakes to all. I was glad I could drop by. The food was quite yummy, but heavy, and to be eaten only once every decade. 

Despite engorged stomachs, we made our way to the Natural History Museum: my favorite place of all time. Love looking at dinosaur bones since always; since I dug my shovel into the dirt and found a chicken bone when I was 5. 
 Before we left, I made sure to leave some flowers for Algernon. I think he would like these, don't you?

Have not had much time to photo and write.
Many apologies.
Working long hours.
Drawing long hours.
Studying long hours.
It hurts to know June is over already
