National Independence Day Celebration

A special event on the National Mall when this special stamp makes it way out for collecting. During the rest of the year, you might be lock enough to find this stamp in a drawer at the Washington Monument Visitor center. I actually had the courage to celebrate Independence Day with all its fireworks lighting up the National Mall and Washington Monument before I started collecting stamps in the late 1990's. It's insanely crowded and getting back on the subway to leave DC is an adventure all its own.
