Default July 4th

Is it just me or does it seem that there is a general lack of interest
or enthusiasm for the traditional July 4th celebrations this year?
I don't see much being talked about it and few events seem to be
advertised.

Maybe we're in another era similar to the Carter malaise days of the
1970s?

We're heading up to Milford-New Haven-Branford for the holiday for a
"movable beach party" and I presume illegal fireworks.

We are leaving for Bend oregon today and they are saying they will be
having an old time 4th celebration. I am looking forward to it. I
agree in most of the country the4th has just become another day for a
big sale


About 8 years ago we were in Telketna, AK the morning of the 4 th. Great
parade. About 4 vehicles towing trailers, one with a picnic table and
probably the local. Celebrities sitting at it. Color guard of vets, and an
Uncle Sam on stilts. Still one of the great parades I have seen.

The fourth found me at the Winston Lakes Golf Course - lost four balls, so did not have the best
score ever.

lost your fourth on the fourth. That's got to be symbolic.
