As time accelerates into the holidays, we looked for a brief way out on an incredible Sunday afternoon. So, we left the dishes, raking and bills behind for a bit and made our way over to Dumbarton Oaks.

We spent the late afternoon walking up and down through the Gardens, keeping time only by the growing length of the shadows and the beat of our footsteps.
