Looks like this area of the marina had some shade.  Much needed relief on a hot, humid day like today.  I believe it's getting close to 100 degrees.

Looks like the suns trying to come out, but the bay is lovely with the boats and lurking blue clouds. picture tells a story.

Anne:  This was taken earlier in the month.  A much nicer day than the hot, humid mess we're dealing with today.

Cindy:  No wonder you like living there so much.  Being near the waterfront is very relaxing.

Ellen:  It was very sunny that day.  Thinking that there may have been a building or tree behind us giving some shad.

That marina is a great place to wander around! We had dinner at the Ethiopian restaurant there last year, and it was fabulous.

Thanks for the memory-jogging photo, Chris Ann!

Tony & Darcy:  Wish I could enjoy some days on the water. 

Robin:  I had Ethiopian food a long time ago in DC.  It was really good.  The communal dining with your hands was hard to get used to, but I remember the food was wonderful.

Rich:  Our expensive hobby is sitting at Manassas Regional Airport.  Husband has a single engine plane. Nothing left for a boat.

I know that Marina from visiting Old Town a few years ago. It's nice and peaceful!

I love Ethiopian food, especially the spicy stuff and the lentils. If you don't want to do communal dining, you can always order your own.

Jackie:  It's very quiet, with the exception of the planes on approach to Reagan National.

Michelle:  Wish I knew anything about boating.  I think I'd really enjoy it.  Maybe a hobby to take up in retirement.

Elizabeth:  I remember the green bean dish that we ordered was awesome.  There was some other spicy stuff too, but I have no clue what my firends ordered.  They were regulars at the restaurant.
