To many, this past weekend was our last before the throngs of tourists flood our fair District. Starting this upcoming 3-day weekend, the ‘summer’ season opens up and quiet weekends around town will be nothing but a memory until after Labor Day.
But even though the ‘official’ start of the summer season has yet to kick off, we residents – as usual – made the most of our time, enjoying what the District has to offer us. From festivals to airshows, rain or shine, our determined photographers were out and about, capturing images for our Monday morning readers to gaze upon. So take up your coffee and a moment and reminisce over the last ‘quiet’ weekend in the area…
