America’s 242nd birthday has come and gone, and Arlingtonians marked the occasion with all manner of celebrations across the county.
The county might not have held its annual celebration at Long Bridge Park this year, but plenty of people were still out and about to catch the fireworks from the National Mall and participate in July 4 parades.
