    come on over... all my grandkids will be out of town, just dh & me sitting around the pool with cocktails!

    and i will probably quilt in the evening, while listening to the boston pops concert.
    of course, that depends on the amount of cocktails consumed in the afternoon!

    I need to visit your area with my two dogs. Canceled fireworks is music to my ears.

    My neice is having a huge cookout. Later that night we will watch fireworks from her house. They let the fireworks off at the fairgrounds, and she lives across from them.

    Probably sewing a bit in the morning. Friends coming for BBQ later in the afternoon. Six Flags is not far from me and if we walk up the hill a bit we can see the fireworks. Would be nice if my 3 sons were local but they are pretty scattered right now. So just the DH, friends and my cats.

    We'll play it by ear. Just too WARM to do much of anything outdoors.

    We're going camping with friends. I'm hoping it's warmer than it was today. We took some friends to the Soo Locks and took the boat tour through the locks. It was cold and windy, but we had a nice time. We're camping Thursday through Monday and usually, there's a couple of guys who buy tons of fireworks and we have our own private display over a field next to our campfire.
