Notes From The Capitol – 4th of July in D.C.
by: Richard Rubin
July 26th, 2013
As much as I am an American History buff, I have never celebrated the 4th of July in our nation’s capitol, until this year. My daughter Michelle, is starting an internship with Senator Carl Levin’s D.C. office, so Gail, Michelle and I decided to arrive a few days early and spend some time sightseeing.
Aside from the blistering heat, (low 90’s every day) it has been a thoroughly enjoyable time. (Apparently, citizens of the D.C. area treat the Heat Index they way we Michiganders brag about the Wind Chill. It is a staple of the local TV weather report.)
We stumbled into the Smithsonian’s Folklife Festival. This year it was Hungarian Heritage: Roots to Revival. It featured highly skilled masters and apprentices from rural areas, as well as musicians, dancers, and artisans from more urban settings. The Festival program highlighted the vitality of this culture, including wonderful crafts such as baskets and saddles.
But the highlight of the trip, of course, was the watching the fireworks on the National Mall. Sitting near the Capitol you see the fireworks behind and above the Washington Monument. Here are a few photos. Enjoy.
We Mean Green!

July 24th, 2013
In the heat of the summer we are outside at our favorite festivals and events promoting green living. I truly value all of the relationships we make – and lets be honest you aren’t really practicing what you preach unless you are hitting the streets and talking to people and getting involved. Maxi Container and our new sister company mirainbarrel are both committed to our local communities, (We recently had a workshop at Romulus Community Gardens too!). Whether it’s Joshua and Richard’s home town of Farmingtons’ Founders Festival or in farm country at the Lavender Festival in Armada, we simply make it happen. We bring affordable and Eco-conciouss products to help you garden, we select events that we think we fit but we are always open to new ones. If you know of an event in Michigan that you think we would like to exhibit at please send Joshua an email at joshua@maxicontainer.com
It’s all about the green, but not just the $ for us (that doesn’t hurt) but we are all about upcycling containers and making them Rain Barrels and Composters. They work great, and are an economical and sustainable decision any home-owner should invest in.
Not only to we go to festivals and events but we host our own. If you, your church, garden club, brownie troop, classroom, etc. are interested in learning more about rain barrels and composting with mirainbarrel please contact us.
Please check out all of our photos on our Flickr.
