    Me and the wife go to her dad's and have a nice bbq, watch baseball, and of course the fireworks at night. Been our little tradition for years now!

    Wifey will be in NY for much needed family time for a few weeks after last year. Home with the dog here, prob see who wants to hang on the deck and grill.

    I will be hanging out at home and eating burgers and surfing Ebay. It is a tradition to drink a few Budweiser's and purchase a few cards on the 4th. I'll take a bite of burger, take a sip of booze, and hit buy it now, an american classic.

    We are going to my Girlfriends Sister and Brother in Law’s camp in Maine for BBQ and relaxation. This was last year, we still celebrated and blatantly ignored the social distance nonsense as did everyone else at the camp.

    Staying home keeping the dog company so it doesn't freak out from all the fireworks. Throwing a few slabs of ribs on the smoker and making my Grandmothers macaroni salad recipe.

    Yes, dogs are absolutely terrified of fireworks, they dread the 4th of July!

    I just listed over a dozen high grade PSA vintage Joe Louis cards on Ebay for only $1 each buy it now with free shipping, some worth thousands of dollars, as my holiday gift to Joe Louis fans everywhere.

    I just hope anyone here interested can take advantage of the offer before they're all sold out.

    That's a very cruel thing to do Steve, you know I'm a huge Joe Louis fan, you should have came to me first before listing them. Just for this, I will be donating my high grade PSA Chuck Bednarik collection to Goodwill instead of giving them to you. I have many tricks up my sleeve!

    I'm beginning to think that "doubledragon" is actually Aaron Rodgers.

    I can't prove it yet, but the evidence is mounting.

    our tradition is before the cookout, to get the family and extended family together, burn a bunch of powder and make lots of noise at the shooting range. I am told there will be many pounds of tannerite in lieu of fireworks this year!
