This morning’s run did not disappoint. DC has so many stunning places to move outdoors.

Had fun biking around neighborhoods to capture the work of so many volunteers who helped in the #Ward6SpringClean!
Snapped a few other photos along my route on that pleasant Saturday morning, too.

Truthfully, I love riding along the Anacostia because it reminds me of being by the Trinity River.

Another Saturday, another stop by @capitolhillbooks.bsky.social. It’s just too convenient after dropping off the compost at Rumsey.

The #exhibit runs through March 2, and they even offer free tours. (Ayanna Reese did a fantastic job guiding us this morning!) Don’t miss it — learn more and sign up for your own tour here: dclibrary.org/negro-motorist-green-book.

It’s a powerful look at this critical part of #Americanhistory — plus, the stories from #DC natives in the group added an unexpected and wonderful perspective.

Hot take: The @dcpubliclibrary.bsky.social is one of the best parts of living in #theDistrict.
Example: This morning, I toured the “Negro Motorist Green Book” #exhibit at the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial #Library.

The Bullet Swallower by @egjames.bsky.social is a fantastic Western-meets-magical realism #novel. I'm drawn to 19th-century #historicalfiction set around the Rio Bravo, and this one delivers #Texas history's truths, the landscape's beauty, and characters I didn’t want to leave when the book ended.

II was just thinking this morning about how other cities could learn from #Dallas' good work with former office buildings (see Dallas Power and Light or the Mercantile Bank building).
This is terribly disappointing news.

Finally opening this one by @megankimble.bsky.social. Reading about highways of my home state while I ride public transportation in DC.

No surprise here: I used @wmata.com to get around a heck of a lot last year.
I never take for granted the infrastructure & service in DC that allows people to get around safely and efficiently without a car. Are there ways to improve? Always. But America’s Subway is still the best.

Duffy thinks the goods in this bag are for him, but they’re really a Christmas gift to myself thanks to staff at @capitolhillbooks.bsky.social providing great (and fast!) recommendations. DC, do this for yourself (or, sure, for others) 👇
