Hope all have a great day and celebrate the holiday with pride. Just kicking with my wife, son, 1.5 year old granddaughter, and BBq'ing some ribs that have been in recuperation all night. And burning in the new towers..of course, Happy 4th and enjoy.

    BBQing some Skirt steak for tacos today with some home made pico and avocado. Wash it down with a Spanish Pinot Noir....or maybe a Corona, haven't decided yet. Tomorrow I get to take the grandkids and a niece to the beach. Let me tell you guys, when you have grandkids the money never sits in the wallet long.

    Sounds like my purposed plan for the day to just have a nice day at home - got some gardening to tend to, back door open with music to the back patio, a cold beer or two, and a nice bbq planned.

    Happy July 4th!

    Happy 4th Polk Dudes and Dudesses! We're rained out here so inside it is. The White Album is on, the Cognac is from France, the food, Chinese, and the beer Canadian. Wow I guess I'm not getting this right, but it sure is good! lol

    Enjoy!
