You are correct, though ironically the weather today is pea-soup fog, at least in Bellevue ;)

July 5 is the first day of summer. Every year on the 4th you'd be biting your nails wondering if it was gonna stop raining so you could set off fireworks when it got dark at 10pm.

I thought the locals were joking about that, but in 18 years I can hardly remember a time when that wasn't true.

Although this year it sure looked like we started early.

No better east of the big lake, but I'm betting it will be clear and beautiful by 5pm.

Edit: Ok, fine, 2:30pm.

Totally off topic, but does anyone know who organizes the weekly sailboat groups in lake union? I see them from my apartment about once a week and they all tie their boats together when it starts to get dark and have what looks like a mild party. It looks like so much fun.

Nevermind, I found it myself: http://www.duckdodge.org/index.php
