It’s the first day of summer. Hurray!
Temperatures above 90 degrees. Humidity. Impossible to find shade. Boo!
This week Don and I found two ways to cool off in the heat.
First, on Don’s birthday we went to Gunpowder Falls State Park in Maryland and rented a couple of tubes, then spent a lazy couple of hours floating down the river.
Don wrote about our trip for WeLoveDC. Here are some shots:




At the end of the week, we took our friend Ciara (who was visiting from Seattle) out to the country to visit a couple of wineries (Chateau O’Brien and FoxMeadows) and to jump into a swimming hole. The one we visited was Buzzard Rock Hole in the Elizabeth Furnace area of the George Washington National Forest.
