Cherry Blossoms
Cherry blossoms are kind of a big deal in Washington. In 1912, Yukio Ozaki, the mayor of Tokyo, gave a gift of Japanese cherry trees to the city of Washington, DC that were planted around the Tidal Basin. Today, their blossoming is a sure sign of the beginning of spring.

Almost Grown
It's been a while since I posted pictures of my boys. It amazes me how much they've grown.

Bangkok
Once again, having an archeologist for a brother presented me with a chance to travel and explore one of the wonders of the world. This time it was the Angkor temples in Cambodia, but on the way I spent some time visiting Bangkok.
