happy 4th of july!

many of us will celebrate by having picnics,
bar-b-q's, parades, blowing off "minnesota issue"
fireworks (we don't get to have the real ones
here but folks will cross over boarders into
wisconsin and south dakota to bring some back.
we can have "sparklers"! ooooooooo!
cities have special permits to blow off the
good stuff so at dusk (nearly 10pm around here)
they start up and some go for nearly a half hour!
kind of makes you feel like a kid again!

my sister's neighborhood does a kiddie parade
here's some shots from last year...







met mike and peggy for dinner at wildfire
last night. kind of a last minute decision
and a good one!! yum!
then we all hooked up with ron & cindy next
door at biaggi's afterwards and visited some
more...not too late due to gary's early morning
tee time today (6:30!). those guys are crazy!

i'm going to head over to my sister's in a bit
and claim a lounger for the day. i told anne that
it almost feels like a hotel over there
cuz if you don't throw your towel on a chair
early on, ya don't get one!! :)

hobie is having poo trouble again, the little
dickens! if he doesn't produce by tomorrow
morning....off he goes to the vet.
i brought him in there yesterday...he was acting
a little punky again. his bladder was the size
of a grapefruit...good lord! well at least that's
better now...just gotta get the poo going.
yay us!!

feels weird to have a holiday in the middle of the week!
oh well, enjoy yours!
happy 4th!
