Re: 4th of july

We dock our 46" trawler on the St. Johns RIver, near DeLand, Florida. If all goes right we are going to head for Jacksonville to watch the fireworks in the harbor. They have a spectacular display. Then if it looks like the last shuttle will launch on the 8th we will cruise down the ICW to the Cape.

Do you need a deck hand and a Nag, sounds like my kind of living.
We will be with the thousands of other boats on Lake Wylie SC. Great show and boat rodeo to get home after.

We will be on the Mohawk river in Scotia, NY tomorrow night for the fireworks show. After the show we will watch the show at the launch ramp as it is the busiest day of the year for the marina we launch from. Heck, on the way to the marina maybe we'll hang around the public boat launch to watch the entertainment there. With any "luck" I could have some stories for the Stupid Human Tricks forum next week. Happy Fourth all, enjoy and stay safe out there!

Heading out to Disappearing Island/ Ponce Inlet, then to Inlet Harbour, then to Edgewater to watch the show, then back to the ramp and home. Hard to beat the fireworks at the Coke Zero 400 last night though.

I will be at Bull Shoals Lake for the long weekend.

^^^My old stompin' grounds! Grew up in Forsyth!

My boat will be in the driveway. . .but I will have the best seat in the area for fireworks. I get to help shoot them off! As a member of the local Fire Department we put the show on every year. Amazing to be right underneath them while they go off!

Sitting on the flybridge tied to my slip in Havre de Grace, Md.
They launch the fireworks from an island literally 300 yards away.
PERFECT.

I was on this same pier last night for the display. They actually canceled the fireworks because of a storm, then "uncanceled" it because the storm fell apart.
AWESOME DISPLAY.

And here's a video of the grand finale,

I usually stay home, but this year we are anchoring out at Stuart, FL for the night in a friends boat. All enjoy yourself, and have fun.
