at the base of the hill

not many bikes on the hill these days
guess the security has basically outlawed them
there was a time when traffic moved in front of the capitol building
and on both sides of the white house

it was funny
cars just going and stopping as they pleased
always an idiot tourist slowing and stopping to snap a photo
things have changed
things are different now

precautions and security

in a time before my time
the national zoo had through traffic
well....
to a greater extent than it does now
as there is still a back road but only foot traffic on the main through path
I guess that back road passes a few animals
but it is more of a entrance or through road than a way to view the animals
dean usually comments on the smell
