GW parkway...
..the best drive in DC !!
so many days I have spent commuting or even just driving along this road. and oh yeah, I also ran along this one fall day when it was particularly beautiful !!
Quick description of the parkway, it passes through a wooded area and has the potomac flowing on the side. There is a grassy median in the middle and there are tons of trees lining the parkway and in the wooded area around it. On a bright sunny day the GW Parkway is spectacular.
There was this one particular day last fall when I was driving back from work. The sun was out, there was a light breeze and I was cruising along in my car listening to some nice music when I noticed the road - the trees all different shades of yellow and red. the wind was causing the leaves to fly across the road ! IT WAS MAGICAL ! Man, I felt that I was somewhere else.
The parkway was my daily commute for almost 10 months. I have to say, this drive and my music made me look forward to going to work everyday :)
Some pics which I found on the net. If I get the time, I will go and click some recent pics. Its quite awesome in the snow too.
Some more pics...

Whatever you do. Do not pull over in front of the sign on the parkway that says "Bush's Center for Intelligence" thinking that it is an ironic place to take a picture. Because cops will pull you over and have a "talk" with you.
I'm just saying. Your brown. Us brown people gots to look out for each other on matters like these.
I came upon this site totally randomly, btw.
I was actually planning on doing that. Good thing you warned me.
