How else would I spend my birthday? Doing my favorite things – tailgating and a Nats game! This will be our first tailgate this season. It’s going to be hot, folks, so be prepared! The plan is we meet in Lot 8 at RFK (veer left and aim for the lone tree near the footpath to the tunnel). We’ll try to be there by 4:30. We’re bringing Rocklands fish for the non-meat eaters and what else? Brisket! We have some beer, but you may want to bring your own frosty cold beverages as well as chairs. If anyone has a portable canopy, that’d be good too. I have this irrational fear that no one is going to show up, leaving my insecure self to feel I have no friends or admirers 🙂 So please come! Parking is free and even if you’re not going to the game, you can leave after the party. See you there (look for the red Jeep)!
Dave and Charlie said the Nats would win tonight, so be it on this anniversary of my 29th birthday!
As it turns out, they’re doing this “Riverfront Reel” every Wednesday night throughout the summer and I happened to catch sight of it on the debut night. The movies are presented by Capitol Riverfront, ASG Events, and MASN. At 6:30 PM the area opens (free) to the public with an inflatable baseball themed interactive game, snacks, beverages, and music. At 7:30, you can “Play Ball” on a Wii on that giant screen (woo! gonna have to try that one!). At 8:50 PM the movie begins. The screen is set up on block south of the New Jersey entrance to the Navy Yard Metro just past the end of the DOT building.
