Well, this was the 3rd of July as we live in a destination city meaning that our beaches and all roadways anywhere near the Pacific coast are completely jammed on the 4th. So we are at home today BBQing.
So as a Local, we went out yesterday to zero crowds to enjoy the Beach. This is my sons very first trip as a solo kayak operator. He is in a Hobie which is pedal driven and he is now tall enough to use that super cool technology. He did fantastic navigating about two miles fishing most of the time. Only one bite tho. It was more of a test to see how he would handle the boat. I give him an A+. A police boat came at us full speed chasing two evading jetskis and came within a few feet of my 11-year-old son, kinda exciting.
Post what you all did for this most awesome of holidays .... Happy 4th of July to the Great United State of America!!!

My new truck is perfect for this ....

No pics of my common pizza order
Watched baseball on tv
Watched gold futures while open. Closed at 1 or 2pm here and opened at 6pm as usual.
Cash currencies were open and I note the dollar index is down again but gold is not flying up.
All of my family and extended family came to our place this year. 30-35 people. Noisy. Crazy. It’s fun, busy, and a chore, all at the same time. Wouldn’t trade it for anything.
Tourist destination area too. The fireworks were everywhere today.
Just finished watching the fireworks at Ala Moana Beach Park here in Hawaii !!!
Watched Joey Chestnut win the Nathans Hot Dog eating contest. Out later for fireworks show along the river, then home. Spent the rest of the evening, after we returned from the show, trying to pry the cat out from under the bed. He's terrified of all the noise from the fireworks.
Nice day at home...Steak dinner, can see the local fireworks from our house, big parade in the village (long time custom here). Cheers, RickO
Nice truck! Congratulations!
Kind regards,
George
Did some corn cobs and dogs on the grill, then blew fireworks up with the neighbors.
We went hiking in the Dragoon Mountains (Council Rocks--Cochise Stronghold):
