An album is forthcoming for this year’s Fourth of July celebration (I’m currently in the middle of revamping my photo system). The picture shown here is taken from our front porch. Yes, I did make sure all of our home insurance payments were current.

This year we were lucky enough to join our neighborhood’s annual picnic celebration, consisting of the following:

• 25+ kids, most of whom live within a stones throw of our house
• Large fireworks from our pyrotechnic neighbors
• A keg and plethora of food
• Staying out until 3am

Update: album is now online
