The Fourth of July




Our weather has been wonderful! Very unusual this early in the summer actually. We had a very nice, sunny and dry 4th. Enough wind to keep the bugs away which is always a bonus. Each summer there is a "Set-Netters" picnic that one of us hosts. It is a great opportunity for all of the fishermen in the bay to get together. For some of us it is the only time we see each other. We hear each other on the radio daily, but don't always get to meet face to face. The party this year was on the 4th and was hosted by our "neighbors" on Harvester Island. They are right across the water from us. It was a great time and really nice to see everyone. Afterwards we had our own party: fire on the beach, roasted hot dogs (just realized we forgot the marshmallows!), and lit off fireworks. The kids had a lot of fun. I think Papa has just about the same amount of fun actually. Garett is a total maniac about fireworks and he just goes nutty! Thank goodness this comes around only once a year right?
