Thanks, Ann, Bob and Alan. The reflecting pool is a mess. Yes, Bob, there is some pollen there, but most of it is algae and pond scum/ The situation is disgraceful. It's bad enough that this national treasure is in such a sorry state. The worst part is that we -- the American taxpayers -- paid $34,000,000.00 less than three years ago to rebuild the pool, change the source of the water, and prevent the accumulation of algae and scum: http://www.nps.gov/nama/planyourvisit/lincoln-memorial-reflecting-pool.htm http://photoblog.nbcnews.com/_news/2012/09/26/14113586-dcs-not-so-reflecting-pool-is-full-of-algae-after-34-million-renovation?lite Dan Dan Matyola http://www.pentaxphotogallery.com/danieljmatyola On Mon, Jun 22, 2015 at 1:33 PM, Alan C wrote: > You have got to be kidding.

Re: PESO: America the Beautiful
Dan, Flower is beautiful. Tree pollen (?) covering the water is trash. I parked outside this spring and had my car covered by it...some sort of tree pollen I think. Yuckie! Regards, Bob S.
