Observations, pictures, and sketches highlight the transition of moving to the nations's Capitol after 30 years of living in the Midwest. A clash in cultures? Maybe not!

Old Town Alexandria Halloween
It’s that time of year again. It feels like we were just there. Halloween is a big deal in Old Town Alexandria. Every year a particular cobblestone street is filled with ghouls, goblins, skeletons, and witches. This year was no different. The whole scene must look spooky in the night hours. As we were observing the dancing skeletons a group of school children walked past. Anyone else who went that way was delighted by the display. It must have taken hours to put it up and there was obviously coordination among the neighbors. I was also hoping to get a photo for the weekly photo challenge but the lighting wasn’t right and it was such a busy scene it doesn’t do well on film - but more probably it’s the photographer with very poor technique. It’s always a delight to drive in to old town regardless of the season. Having such a beautiful day for a morning walk is always a treat.
