Dear PoP – Can You See Fireworks on the Mall From Bloomingdale?

Fireworks on the National Mall in Washington DC, originally uploaded by Pak Gwei.

“Dear PoP,

I’ve got a question I think only you or your readers would be able to answer, could you help me out?

Does anyone know if I’ll be able to see the July 4th fireworks from my roof in Bloomingdale? You can see the Monument and a bit of the Capitol through the trees but I’m not sure if the show would be visible. Anyone know for sure?

If not I guess I’ll just head up to Cardozo HS, which I might do anyway as I hear it’s also great.”

If I had to guess I’d say yes. But I’m sure some Bloomingdale folks can give a more accurate answer. Have fun and Happy Fourth to all!

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.

You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.

It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
