Life's A Bench III

So, when was the last time you sat on a bench and took in your surroundings?

A little different from my bench photos here and here, this one has a human element with an added display of young love—I’m assuming. These two are sitting on a bench along the perimeter of Ford’s Landing in Old Town Alexandria. It was a beautiful Saturday, and the young guy appears to be pointing out to his friend areas of interest on the Maryland side of the Potomac River.

A view of some Old Town homes from Ford’s Landing can be seen here.

Lucy At The Potomac

This was taken at the small dog park I mentioned here. The shaggy blonde is Tessa, and she was very persistent, not letting Lucy rest for a moment. The high-pitched bark and alligator snap mean Lucy’s had enough and is ready to walk. Lucy’s a funny girl. She seems to “use” other dogs only as a means to expend her pent up energy. She doesn’t endlessly demand other dogs’ attention like some. She has her own agenda. You go girl! (Click to enlarge if you’d like a water spray!)

The View From Ford's Landing

This is the view from Ford’s Landing, a townhouse development in Old Town Alexandria. Out of frame, on the left, is the shore of the Potomac and a small dog park. Usually after a dip in the waters, Lucy ventures on to the Jones Point Lighthouse, stopping along the way to play ball beneath the Woodrow Wilson bridge.
