I’m trying to squeeze this one in while it’s still today.
I just got back from the National Mall. I can’t think of a better place to spend Independence Day than in the nation’s capital. Last year I was in the original Washington for a great down-home celebration. The year before that, (or was it the year before?) I was in New York, perhaps the city that best represents America’s diversity and initiative.
However, this year, I stood on the grounds of the Capitol as I listened to the National Symphony Orchestra and watched fireworks explode over the Washington Monument. I stood in a crowd of over 400,000 people waving American Flags and dancing to music provided by Stevie Wonder as part of the Capitol Fourth celebration.
And now that I’m home, I watched the video of today’s successful liftoff of the space shuttle Discovery.
Oh, and did I mention that they have instant cheese grits at the newly remodeled Kingstowne Giant? It’s been a good day.
