4th of July in Washington, DC

Frank and I went to The Fireworks in Washington, DC this weekend. We had great seats near the base of the Washington Monument from which we could see the Jefferson and Lincoln Memorials and the White House! As one would expect, the fireworks were beautiful! Unfortunately, there was a downpour for about an hour before the fireworks but we don't melt! (It reminded me of the first year of the Boise River Festival when they had picked the weekend for its lowest chance of rain and then there was a huge flash flood style rain!) It still amazes me how much precipitation we get here - about 4 inches of rain per month all year round! No wonder you don't need sprinklers here for your yard! :-)
