  Photos: CP to Georgia Avenue, U Street, and Up Conn 

  Pictures from a run on July 1st 2009. The map is below, but I ran from Cleveland Park to Georgia Avenue down to U Street back up through Adams Morgan and then over the Duke Ellington Bridge to Woodley Park. Finally I went back up Conn from WP to CP.  The pictures are in reverse order from the end of the run to the beginning:

  

  Some U Street Buildings; or maybe it was Florida Avenue.

  

  I like pictures of baseball diamonds, this one was on Georgia Avenue and Euclid Street NW.

  

  Proof that Euclid Street NW exists.  I had a high school math teacher who would talk about Euclid streets during class for random reasons.  Mr. Balliff: Expect this photo in the future.

  

  Some businesses on Upshire just past Georgia Avenue.

  

  Another baseball field on Georgia and Upshire.

  

  Some graffiti alongside the road.

  

  Same field on Upshire.

  

  A bridge in Rock Creek Park.  I think technically the bridge is in Pine Branch Park, which is a smaller offshoot of Rock Creek.

  

  The bridge in the distance.

  

  And the Map.

    I lived for a year at East-West Highway and Rock Creek Parkway and drove the Parkway to G'town (and then across to Rosslyn) several times per week. That bridge pic looks verrry familiar.

      The view is much better when there isn't traffic. The bridge is 16th Street going over the parkway.

  Photos: CP, WP and In Between 

  Here are my some more pictures from my run this morning, June 26th 2009.  Today I actually carried my old Sony DSC-P100 Camera in my pocket so the pictures should be a bit less grainy.  The pictures are again around Cleveland, and Woodley Park in DC:

  

  Looking south in the direction of Dupont Circle from the middle of the Connecticut Avenue Bridge which goes over Rock Creek Parkway below.

  

  Looking north toward Woodley Park from the same Bridge.

  

  The lamp posts on this bridge¹ have cast eagles on top.  I like eagles generally, and it is getting close to the Forth of July.

  

  A building in Woodley Park is looking down on us.

  

  A picture of the trees that grow below the Conn. Avenue bridge over the Klingle Valley.

   

  A look at the commercial part of Cleveland Park.  This shot from Macomb looking north toward Ordway on the east side of Conn. Avenue.

  

  Further up Conn.  Looking south toward Ordway.

  

  Finally, a picture of the Firehouse here in Cleveland Park.  The road was really busy so it was pretty lucky that the picture I took didn’t have any cars in it.

  

  Once again here is all of the pictures on a map of the Cleveland Park, Woodley Park, Rock Creek Park Areas of DC.

  1. For the life of me I cannot remember the proper name for the bridge right now.  I know it has a name, but couldn’t quickly find it. ↩
