Even hotter!

We drove down to Jones Point to see if we could see the flyovers.

We could, sort of; they were a long way away.

But it did offer shade under the Woodrow Wilson bridge.

Which was important as it’s really hot out there.

After that excursion, we’re happy to be back in our air conditioned home.

The Fourth of July in DC is very unappealing this year.

Beyond the heat, there is extra security to get onto the mall as part of the extremely underwhelming “State Fair.”

And then the fireworks coming later than normal this year are trying to break the world record for most shells exploded. That provoked warnings about extremely unhealthy air quality with all the smoke and particulates likely hanging around under the heat dome.

We’re happy to skip that.
