Happy 4th to you as well!

It's a great day to celebrate life, liberty and the pursuit of the perfect kitchen! Isn't that the definition of happiness?

And, be proud to live in a country where we are free to be TKO!

Seriously though, and not political or anything, I just want to say how thankful and proud I am of those who serve our country!

Happy 232nd Birthday United States!

OT. Happy Independence Day

It rained nicely in the afternoon yesterday, thundered a bunch, of course after I had watered!!! But no lightning, so that was a plus. I was online for a while, but started a new book about birds, and must have missed your post, Cricket. Hope you day was fine, not too much work to keep the family happy, and lots of help with the cleanup. There were fireworks going off all over the place which I could hear, not see. My new lawn mower arrived today, and I put it together before breakfast, since there is a heat advisory for some reason....just the usual ole 90+ but about 100% humidity. There was a smoky haze early in the morning, but the hosta were all perky with the cool temps from the night time. When it is about 76 at night, it is as cool as it will get from now until October first. At least then.

Yep, I remember the really tough times too! We have had several days of beautiful weather and most of my fam went to the beach. DH and I BBQ'd and I took advantage of the nice evening weather to pull weeds. We watched 'Independence Day' with Will Smith. I love that alien movie. Rosa

Happy Independence Day, or as I say, Happy Fourth (sorry, Jannie!). If Thanksgiving is Turkey Day, maybe we should call today Hot Dog Day? Greetings from the Birthplace of the Nation, Philadelphia, where we have Independence National Historical Park, not Fourth of July National Historical Park. Big shindig in the city tonight. I'll watch on tv. Enjoy the day!

I just got one along with 'Purple Splash' but don't know quite where to put them, I got them because my friend has 'Fourth of July and it is always blooming and smells good too! Perhaps way out in my woods where someone will come upon them and be delighted! Jackie, your garden is always such a delight to see!

And a Happy 4th from sunny South Florida... on a boat... in a marina in downtown Ft. Lauderdale. All we have to do is get off the boat and walk over to the beach to cool off and watch fireworks! Only in America can life be so grand!! I hope everyone relaxes and enjoys their special time with family and friends.

We have just a short drive to see the fireworks...but a long wait, given that it's light 24/7 now a days (we do fireworks in January).

But I'm independant from my cast finally :) which is a wonderful thing on a hot day!

Have a happy 4th all from Sunny Alaska!!!

DH brought an old table top to put on top of the plywood on the island so I can try out the new prep space and I sure am loving it. Test driving the oven today with some pulled pork which is smoking on the grill right now. We'll walk over to the lake to view the fireworks tonight if the rain holds off.

HAPPY 4th to everyone!

Happy 4th to all from sunny & warm NH! How neat that we span the country from here on the east coast all the way to igloochic in Alaska!

DS flew in from Denmark & we picked him up at Logan last night. So the gang's all here to celebrate! Big, big fireworks display at BIL's tonight, and the weather seems to be with us.

Best wishes to all my GW friends!
