Lyndon Johnson Memorial Grove

Right by the Pentagon is a parking lot for the Lyndon Johnson Memorial Grove. We hadn’t been there for quite some time. I was looking for places to capture water photos for the 52Frames challenge last week. It started with a walk across the foot bridge over to the park. You can walk along the GW Memorial Parkway with a clear view of the Washington Monument. Walking past the Memorial takes you to the marina that is filled with all sorts of watercraft. There is another clear view of the pentagon from here. We always try to avoid the paths that are surrounded by geese - as they can be rather nasty. We then passed under the bridge and saw a fisherman trying his luck. There were a lot of opportunities for water shots including one with a spider and web dangling above the water. We aren’t able to walk as far as we used to. My husband keeps having dizzy spells from the medications he is taking and my plantar fasciitis is quite uncomfortable - so much so that I’ve decided not walking for a week is in the cards this week since nothing else seems to be helping. It’s always a joy to find places like this to some the time, but I wonder for how much longer.
