Mother nature wasn't in a celebratory mood as suppertime rolled around. We sloshed down the food truck lane looking for the perfect DC supper snack. I ended up with some East Indian street food and Dave had an all American hot dog with sauerkraut, chips and pop. We ate in a covered stairwell with two other families looking to dodge the drizzle. We hung around for a bit more but in the end decided it was just too wet to sit on the mall lawn and watch the fireworks. So we beat the crowd and took the subway back to VA. We got to my sister's house just in time to see the news and interviews from people who toughed it out. The fog, humidity and clouds obscured much of the fireworks display so although we were disappointed not to have been on the mall for the fireworks, dry feet and a warm bed after a long day in the city were awfully nice. Good night and Happy Birthday America !
