8903 – 4th of July!

Took Bugah & Co to Bob Evans for a farewell breakfast… MN was sneaky and footed the bill. We’re going to have to work out some sort of system of permissions for bill catching! Poor Boog didn’t want to head out, but Em seemed ready to head on home.

Relatively mellow after the fireworks on the 3rd. More grilling of hot dogs and veggie burgers (out of propane), Louise, Doug, Tina, Kendall, Adam and BHK all got together for some good eats and limited fireworks… every time we went somewhere to shoot off some airborne pretties, the police or a homeowner came out and said no sir, no sir. The fountains were quite pretty, anyhow. Areas we were blocked include the back yard, the private beach opposite the buildings, and “forbidden beach” which is public, but right next to some big homes. A fellow came out and took down the plate numbers of everyone parked there… sort of jerky behavior for the 4th. I can understand not wanting stuff too close to your house, but we were shooting the beach and it was just 9:30pm… not too late by any one’s estimation. Ah well, the food was good and we all got to hang out a bit, and enjoy a midweek day off.

There was a tornado watch in DC – just as well that we didn’t head to that mob scene. The National Mall was briefly evacuated around 5 p.m., forcing the thousands gathered for 4th of July festivities to take shelter in nearby monuments and federal government buildings. By 7 p.m. the Mall was re-opened, though everyone had to pass back through security checkpoints set-up in the area again.

We headed home – BHK and I just enjoyed a little peace and quiet come the end of the day… not a bad thing at all.
