The Jefferson Memorial sits beneath a cloudy September sky. This pic was taken from the bridge on Constitution Ave. as we were walking around the Tidal Basin to the Peddle Boats. We rented a 4-person boat and sweated our way out to toward the Memorial. I thought we might cruise around the basin a bit, but it was way too hot and the peddling was far too much work to do more than get an ok view of the Memorial (right) and get off the water. As I mentioned, I'd recommend waiting on the peddle boating until mid to late October when the weather should be nice and cool and the light much better. But I do recommend the peddle boats; when it's not miserably hot and humid, they can be a lot of fun.
