In an interesting turn of events, I will be celebrating Independence Day at the National Mall in Washington DC. I found out this morning that my last day in the field is Monday (the 4th), and I'll be done with that by 10am. In one of the more spontaneous decisions I've made in my life, I decided that I would be in DC with Jeremy by 7pm that evening so that we could see the fireworks together. It's amazing that we live in a time and place where it's possible to fly halfway across the country just to be with the one you love on a holiday that celebrates freedom and independence. Interesting turn of events indeed.

I had planned to be there for two weeks anyway, but we were under the impression that I wouldn't be able to leave until the 8th. I guess I'm just impatient. :)

I do believe I will be down there as well! Have lots of fun, you crazy kids (and I think the best advice is to get there early, though you can see them from most anywhere in the city).

DC on the 4th is a trip.

My advice, go to the Jefferson monument, the mall and all its monuments will be outrageously packed. the jefferson is still right there but just far enough out of the beaten path to find a nice place to sit overlooking the potomac and the mall. just a thought.

enjoy.
