Drummers

On Sundays there is often a drum circle in Meridian Hill Park , so we went to check it out last weekend. We were probably on the late side–it was close to 5:00 in the evening– so by the time we arrived there were just these two guys tapping away. It seemed like the old guy was teaching the younger guy as if it was his first time there. I sat and listened for a little bit while Matt took this shot. It was definitely a good background beat for fall in the park, but we gotta go back later to catch a bigger group of drummers…

Go back on a warm and sunny day around 1 or 2, and it will be packed. Even better, go down one of the sidestreets midway down the park on 16th and go up their hills. You can hear the drumming well into Adams Morgan. There’s also some spectacular views of DC back there.
