July 4th 2010.

This about says it all. 

It was hot. 

We were all sweaty. 

We went to the beach. Twice.

We watched two parades.

Neither compared to the parades I watched and 

participated in while growing up in NoDak.

We drank a ton of water. 

We watched a ton of fireworks.

We ate a ton of food.

We got bit by a ton of mosquitoes. 

And we had a TON of fun.
