I am quite tired today. Just about every five days or so, I push just a little too hard, and I end up with a day that is just a bit more challenging than the others to power through. That's when I know it's about time to ease my foot off the throttle and give myself a bit of a breather. That is what happened today.
After getting off work, I did a short jaunt around Nationals Park here in DC to round out my daily practice.
This stadium and the surrounding area is a living testimony for the progress that a well financed vision can achieve. Both the vision and the financial backing are critical to this sort of success. This park was really one of the final capstones on the multi-year, multi-industry effort to recapitalize the Southeast Washington, DC area.

A vision without funding is a hallucination, of course, but this area is a long way from that sad state of affairs. With the right vision and financing, Washington, DC has taken an area of the city that gave every impression of being comprised of strip clubs, liquor stores, pawn shops, and gas stations back in the early 1990's and turned that same neighborhood into one of the more desirable up and coming areas for young professionals.
The folks at the game looked pretty relaxed and that they were having a good time. Since today is a day of rest for me, I'll wrap this up for now.
