Keeping Cool

As forecast, today was hot and our activities were carefully planned.  By midday, when the temperature was approaching 90F, we were in the local community pool and then sitting by the pool in the shade.

Firstly though,  a leisurely start and a morning walk in the  woods.  Shady, but not cool..

Even the deer were staying in the shade and close to the water, such as it was.

At the end of the afternoon we set off with David to visit the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum near Dulles airport.  By this time it was very humid and thunder was starting to roll around a very dark and cloudy sky.

The museum is beautifully designed and filled with so many interesting aircraft, artefacts and stories.
