Blue Monday: Blue Sky over Fort Washington

Blue Monday is hosted weekly by Smiling Sally.
To see more offerings, or to participate yourself, please head on over to her blog.

I've been sorting through the photos I've taken during the last few months, and found this one from back in October.

(Click on photo for a better view.)

M and I had been to Mount Vernon for lunch (the restaurant there is one of my favorites in this area), and on the way home I snapped this shot of Fort Washington across the Potomac in Maryland. It was a little early for any autumn color in the trees, but the sky was a nice clear blue (except for that one tiny cloud right over the fort).

We've never visited Fort Washington, but it's open to the public, and it's supposed to be a great place for a picnic. So I'm putting a trip to the fort on my "One of these Days, Definitely" list.

I've visited Fort Washington several times. My mom was a good one to take us to historic places. Thanks again, Joy, for the memories.

Happy Blue Monday.

This certainly would be a marvelous place to visit. I love that blue sky (and little cloud).
