Back in June 2012, I was driving down Wisconsin Ave. in Georgetown looking for something to photograph.
I liked this building a lot. Can almost hear the floorboards creaking. Love that old architecture so much.
Then this nail or hair salon stopped me. I found a parking place (minor miracle in Georgetown) and photographed it from different angles….
Looks like at least two flower boxes with sweet potato vine, coleus and petunias? Someone has a really green thumb. My potato vines never looked that good.
Hope your week’s going well so far. . . .

Pearls & Prose 
We have similar style buildings around here, especially in the West Village. Although most of them seem to be brick construction, I have seen a few of the clapboard variety. Occasionally you can still find ones with carriage houses attached. I’m fascinated by those.
I remember, Jackie. I am dying to photograph all the beautiful buildings in New York! We just don’t have architecture like that out here.
I’ve never been to Wisconsin but I have been to Ireland…it kind of looks like southern Ireland with the architecture color and beautiful flowers everywhere. Nice images!!
Oh, sorry, I should have been more clear…Wisconsin Avenue is the main drag in Georgetown, a neighborhood of Washington, D.C. After living there I forget that not everyone is familiar.
Ireland is near the top of my list for places I want to visit.
lol! never been to Washington, DC either. 😦 But it’s on my bucket list!
Cool. 🙂
Such beautiful buildings. I like the color as well and all those lovely details. The flowers are very well kept.
Would love to have that person working on my garden. 🙂
I actually miss seeing potato vines. Didn’t really notice them until I moved to Boston. Not sure I’ve seen any in London. Lovely photos.
Thanks, TBM. I never noticed them before moving to the East Coast. It seems like London would have the climate for them….
