The fourth of July is to Washington DC as St. Patrick's Day is to Savannah...

well kind of.

A city wide feeling of patriotism is in the air, and it's a very fun thing to watch. The National Mall is set up for the fireworks and concert that is to

take place tonight.. I snapped some pictures last night of the rehearsal concert ..After a rather potent storm blew through the musicians and other people scheduled to take stage were able to practice only a few hours after originally planned.

These seven guns are facing the Capitol from the top National Mall.^

This is the stage right in front of the Capitol building. ^

^The stage again.. All RED WHITE AND BLUE OR BLUE WHITE AND RED

(kind of French looking dare I add)

Finally this is one of the skyscrapers on K street. All decked out with RED WHITE AND BLUE^

I can't wait for fireworks tonight. I'll have more pictures tomorrow..

This says sooo much to those who are looking.
