The real DC summer weather has finally hit and the hot, humid days have left me a little lazy. In addition to limiting my crafting drive, it has also meant that instead of walking to my metro stop, I've been taking the bus. And I made a discovery last week about my bus stop - it was once the location of a "hanging tree". According to the commemorative rock, the confederate general Mosby used it during the Civil War to hang Union spies.
This seems like an unfortunate spot for a bus stop. I mean - how much bad karma am I soaking up each day that I stand on top of Union soldier graves waiting for the bus? Should I be concerned? Or is the heat getting to me? I'll try to post something a bit cheerier next time . Until then I'll just be - you know - hanging out!
(This is the first post I've done from my Iphone - there is a Typepad application. It's not as pretty as my other posts - I'll have to figure out how you clean it up!)
