Unusual Independance Day Trip

The remnants of Hurricane Arthur pretty much put a damper on all things outside. Not a good travel day in the northeast.

I felt bad for everyone living on the east coast over the holiday.  We had perfect weather in the Midwest.

I had a great Fourth.......NOT! I was invited (Forced/Ordered) to work a double shift in the wonderful, rainy Town of Lexington, MA.  And I was even invited back on July 5th for an encore performance! Come on retirement day!

I took my Family Tent Camping for 4 days starting Thursday.

Yes, It was VERY wet for the first two days, but we have plenty of quality camping equipment and tarps so we were dry.

All in all we had a good time and much relaxation.

Dear Fellas and Gals,

I know that the scourge of Arthur played havoc with our Independance Day Festivities.

I am sorry for that, but at the same time, I am glad for the many thousands there in Philadephia that enjoyed the party where the nation was born!

Suffice it to say that 2 days later the Cape May, New Jersey 4th of July fireworks that had been postponed on the 4th to the 6th(due to Arthurian interference) were cancelled due to rough seas on Sunday.
