We were fairly fortunate with the weather for the picnic at our house in
2007.  I don't think it got much above 90, and no rain to speak of.  The
1995 picnic here in Baltimore had temperatures of 99+.  Good thing that
we had shelter for that one.

I cannot see a problem with doing early June or late May.  In years gone
by, we had people with school age children, but that is not much of a
concern now.  I think that your Charlotte is the only one still in
school.
