Happy Fourth of July

    I just want to wish everyone a very happy Fourth of July. 

    I hung my flag up yesterday and will leave it up until at least Monday.  I love to fly it!   I also have some red, white & blue ribbon bows that I hang on the coach lights on either side of the garage door — very festive!  Today, I have been playing patriotic music on the CD player and we will have a family dinner later on.  We are in the middle of a heat wave here in Portland — so we will cook the brats inside where it is air-conditioned.   I am such a wimp, besides I don’t own a barbque.

   Just for your information, if you care, a heat wave here is defined as 3 or more days in a row where the temp reaches at least 90 degrees.   My car said 102 a few days ago, but that is not the official temperature.  It is supposed to be at least 95 today and cool down to about 78 for fireworks tonight.    AND it will be almost a full moon tonight, too.   I hope you enjoy your evening as much as we hope to enjoy ours!
