Sunday afternoon on the river

The Anacostia River used to be notorious for its filthiness, but it’s been cleaned up in recent years, and I’ve read that people may soon be able to swim in it.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by Pbase are decidedly unsharp.

It looks like a nice place to relax. Well composed with the larger boats framing the sailboat. V

A very nice photograph and looks like a nice place to spend a day or afternoon.
Do not see masks so they must be family .
Like the tree framing the waterway.

I've always been happiest when living near a river that's part of the city. Good news that a clean up is working. This is a lovely relaxing Sunday scene.
