Happy Fourth of July
What are you doing to celebrate Independence Day?
We’re going to Freedom Fest here on base. Water slides, moon bounces, food and entertainment are all on the list of fun. Then we’ll be heading off to a BBQ at a neighbor’s house – 4 families, 15 kids. We will be able to see the fireworks from anywhere on base, but I think we’ll walk down to the Potomac for the best, unobstructed view. This year I’m toting along a portable radio and so we can listen to the simulcast music. Anything will be better than last year, when I was sick and stayed in bed all day with a fever. I watched the fireworks from one of our upstairs windows while wrapped in a blanket.
If you’re interested, you can catch watch the fireworks display on PBS.
Whatever your plans, have a safe and happy Fourth of July!
