The daffodils are in bloom! It was a beautiful day today so I took a a drive past Lady Byrd Johnson Park today and a stroll to Lyndon Baines Johnson Memorial Grove, which I had never visited before. You can see the daffodils at Lady Byrd Johnson Park as you drive down the GW Parkway, but there is nowhere to park. But follow the signs to Lyndon Banes Johnson Memorial Grove and you can park your car and take a short walk across a bridge where you will find more daffodils and a flagstone walkway to a stone sculpture. Formerly known as Columbia Island, the park was renamed in honor of Lady Bird Johnson and her campaign to beautify Washington D.C. . From the grove there is a beautiful view of the river and the monuments in DC. This was apparently one of the Johnsons’ favorite spots to stop and admire the view.
