Gravelly Point-National Airport
1.Gravelly Point-National Airport
Gravelly Point is just north of National Airport, just across the Potomac from Washington, DC.  The Mt. Vernon biking/hiking trail goes by there, and it is possible to watch (and listen!) to lots of aircraft as they arrive and depart National. Walkers, picnickers, and just watchers come  out and view the planes.

rainy rescue
3.rainy rescue
a strong storm blew quickly through Arlington, VA, bouncing the scaffolding of the window washers on the building across the highway, probably 150  yards away.  As the strong winds hit, plastic chairs were sucked into the air and landed 14 stories below. The driving rain & wind caused the scaffold to hook on an iron railing, pulling it partly loose, and trapping the crew on the scaffold, then on a balcony.  As the storm eased, another crew pulled their scaffold up to tie the railing down, and get the crew.
