Petworth (June 4, 2023)
After eight months, we have finally returned to discovering the streets of our hometown. Here are some of the homes and other sights we encountered during our continued exploration of the Petworth neighborhood.
Some homes have front yards sporting wild natural gardens.
Others go in a completely different direction.
We passed the Washington Latin Public Charter School, which offers its students a classical education. The school emphasizes the Socratic method of teaching which encourages cooperative argumentative dialogue between the students. In addition to Latin, the it offers French, Mandarin Chinese, and Arabic.
Speaking of classics, here are the two classic cars of the day.
We also passed by one of the more interesting lending libraries that we have seen. It was crafted as a miniature house, complete with pet dog. The whole front wall opened to access the books stored inside.
We don’t normally feature the people we meet during our walks but made and exception for this future fashion icon.
