Finding the Source

I'm skipping the cherry blossoms at the Tidal Basin this year, an annual ritual I haven't missed in 10 years. This is in part because of the cold-stunted blooms this year and in part because I can't easily walk to the show.

But cherry blossoms are everywhere. Even on my 12-minute walks around the block. And I'm not the only one who notices.

It's not a matter of traveling to the source, but of finding the source wherever you happen to be.
