This week, I had to run an errand near Capitol Hill. While in that neck of the woods, I took a couple minutes to pop into the Spirit of Justice Park. The park sits behind the Rayburn House Office Building between C and D Streets, Southwest.

I think I’ve been in this park before, but most often I just walk by it. I’m glad I stopped. It was peaceful (always nice to find in the city), the fountains were going, and the trees blooming. If you ever feel like the city is chewing you up and spitting you out, the Spirit of Justice Park might be a nice place to take a break from it all.
