"Amazing!" and "Fantastic!" say cyclists riding by, as they watch four big white-tailed deer dance across the baseball fields. Dogs bark the same sentiments. Further upstream a buck with velvet antlers escorts four does as they taste-test foliage by the soccer fields. 🤖 takes the Western Ridge Trail across a corner of Rock Creek Park to northwest DC. A metallic lawn bench rests upon the Chinese word "Peace"; hearts and dragonflies form a garden gate. At the French immersion school a confusing sign symbolicaly forbids flying up the stairs, or maybe falling down and dying. 🥃 and 🐻 join final miles, then continue.
