This past weekend I headed down to the National Mall to see a new exhibit about Jim Henson and his creations (muppets, fraggle rock, seasame street, etc). Photography wasn't allowed in the exhibit but I thought I would share a few of my other photos as it was a beautiful day!
exotic palms surrounding an urn near the smithsonian castle.
these roses were so fragrant you could smell them from 20 feet away!

a great quote from Jim Henson that summed up the exhibit - it reads"As children, we all live in a world of imagination, of fantasy, and for some of us that world of make-believe continues into adulthood."
