WTOP had a tweet this morning with this picture of I-395 in DC looking west towards the Jefferson Memorial, Tidal Basin, and Virginia. I liked the picture because it makes the area look more complex than it is. The ramp in the foreground is coming from the 9th Street Tunnel, the overpass in the near center is the L'Enfant Promenade, the overpass further back is the ramp to the 12th Street Tunnel, and the carriageway on the right is headed to Maine Avenue.

Cades Cove in Smokie Mountains National Park; the expectation and the reality:





(To be fair, a wedding was held at the chapel; it wasn't designed for guests trying to find parking spots along the narrow route, and periodically blocking it.)
