Happy Birthday, America!
She looks good for 239 years old.
The time has been zipping by - the 4th of July already. It seems we have been very busy since we arrived here.
Not that I'm keeping track, but we are beyond the 1/3 point for our time here.
Lots going on here for the holiday. Friday Harbor has a parade and a community BBQ. This evening there will be a band playing for "Rock the Dock", followed by fireworks.
I'm scheduled on our Roche Harbor boat today. There are all kinds of activities right there at the marina. Right next to where our slip is. In fact, they bring in a floating dock for hosting the activities, and we are tied to that dock, because it takes up part of our normal slip. Combine that with limited dinghy parking (again, that floating dock), throngs of people (a couple of whom might be imbibing)... well, it makes for interesting arrivals and departures.
Yes, Stephanie, someone has to work hard for people to have fun.
The past three years, we have listened to the music and watched the fireworks from the cockpit of Wild Blue. Not much option, 'cause it was going on around us. We are planning a quieter evening here in the motorhome... no intention of fighting the crowds to get into and out of town. Just getting into work in both locations (and parking) will be more of a challenge. It's a holiday!
Hope your holiday weekend is fun and safe.
