I don't have anything special planned for the 4th. Tomorrow night (the 3rd) I am having dinner with my Sons.............that is always nice. Maybe I'll blow some of the dust off of the 27 and go cruising around on Monday.............or maybe I'll just take a long nap. :) Nice thing about being retired, every day is a holiday. :D

BB'Q seems to be the trend on these special Holidays. My daughter is coming over the Boys have other things to do.
Cooking out is a pain at our house, the daughter eats chicken only, one son beef only and his girl friend is a vegeterian the other son what ever, my wife is always dieting and I am type 2 diabetic. :LOL: :LOL:
As stated earlier it's about the freedom we enjoy and the ones that are making it possible. We still have the best to enjoy in the USA even though sometimes we complain about the way things are going, I suppose we ought to be more thankful for what we do have.
I got " OLD Glory" out this morning and 7 ete bitey ones out around the yard.
Hit 118(broke a record) here in Phoenix today,I am closer to Avondale where it hit 123 I am staying inside while my A/C is draining my wallet even with it set at 80.Still 105 on my back porch at 10:30 PM, rumor has it Satan is buying up foreclosures here.
jeffb2 here in louisiana it hit 100+ but the humidity makes it so much nicer:CRY:When I lived In s/w Tucson all I had was a swamp cooler not A/C and all and all found it to be quite pleasant. But maybe that is how us po folk lived:LOL:
Sounds very hot! It was around 92 here when we drove 45 minutes to the coast for nice cool 70's went on a short one hour hike with our dogs. Then back here to the 90's. Pretty wierd what a few miles will do.
