Little too much fun....

This is a late post. It all started innocently enough - a large gathering of family and friends out enjoying the sunshine, the food and celebrating Independence Day. Then someone said, "You know what we should get?" (I think it was me...) And the next thing you know we're mixing Jaeger Bombs and shots of Skull Vodka. Spontaneous singing of patriotic songs broke out. I still don't know all the words to "You're a Grand Old Flag" but that didn't stop me! Then my sister brought out the glow sticks and all hell broke loose. There was much revelry, even more things getting blowed up real good, and more Jaeger and Skull and then there were fireworks and more food and then....

I finally wandered home - walking - I live across the street from where the party was, hence the inebriation. I think it was about 2am. Got up the next morning at 7am to go stake out a space at the parade route. Sat in the sunny but cold weather watching the Kenosha Parade. Then onto yet another party with swimming (Brrrrr!) and a watermelon marinated in tequila and triple sec.

Luckily, I had Monday off so I had a full day to recover from my madness. It was a great Fourth!

(note: I have no idea why the word February is appearing under that first pic. 'tis a mystery...)
