I just picked up our first watermelon of the season. Gotta have it on the 4th. DH and I will just be hanging out at home while all the madness goes on. We can see quite a few fireworks displays from our bedroom window, since we're on the side of a hill, so we camp out there and watch. Unfortunately, there is a segment of the population here that celebrates by shooting guns into the air, so I always prefer to be at home. Guess the idiots have never heard the one about "what goes up must come down" and don't care where the bullets come down. The stupidity of people never ceases to amaze me. Between them and the drunks, staying at home seems best. Gee, I sound like a crotchety old woman, but I'm not. Honest.
