I'm leaving for vacation, fishing in Canada, so will miss the fourth here.<br /><br />NASA is going to try to blow a stadium sized hole in a comet on the 4th. It may be visible in the western US. SHould be good fireworks.

Have to work. The lake will be full of waterheads and morons so will have to take care of all of them. Street dance in one of the small towns I patrol. Expecting around 3,000 crammed into a 1 block dance area. <br />Should be a good time for some.<br />I will do my celebrating the 5th and 6th.

Got enough illegal fireworks to invade Canada. :D Taking them to Seaside, where I can drive on the beach, like I do every year, where there's a professional show and everybody else on the beach has a truckload of illegal fireworks. <br /><br />Yeehaw! :cool: :eek:

Staying away from people I'd guess... :) <br />As Dawg said... Way too many idiots!<br /><br />I might go to a local (less popular) lake and do some fishing, or head to the desert to do some bunny and coyote hunting.<br /><br /><br />H.

Maybe wet a line down at the park..<br /><br />Actually, working on these holidays and weekends is kinda nice.. It's quiet in the shop.. The door's closed.. The phone is'nt ringing off the hook.. I actually get things accomplished..<br /><br />Multi-tasking sucks.... :D

Going to a BBQ at the Mayor's house up at the lake....Kids think it's cool having dinner at the Mayor's....They don't realize that it's a small community (population 400) and the mayor lives just a couple of houses down :D :D :D <br /><br />I plan on spending all weekend with my wife and kids, playing on the jetski and maybe do some fishing....<br /><br />No matter what you do, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, think of our service men and women defending OUR freedom.

I'm bummin'. Stupid company is run by Canadians and we are trying to get investment from the UK, so what do they do? Schedule meetings for the 4th, 5th & 6th. I'm flyin' on the 3rd. :mad: <br /><br />Heading to Lake Havasu on the 7th though to make up for it. I know DR won't be there, but that place is still a lot of fun for us.<br /><br />I am TOTALLY envying ZmOz. That’s a proper 4th. Illegal AND patriotic. :D

Thanks DR. We will. Hava zoo for sure, but that's just the deal. We like the south end a lot and poke around up in the Gorge too. Still beautiful and the party can be good too . . .

Staying home and hanging out with hubby. No fireworks up here. Its a fire hazard. <br />We'll be swinging through Fire Valley,NV. this summer on our way back from New Mexico. We'll be stocking up on those fireworks and watch out New Year's Eve! Fireworks galore! :D <br />Bassy

The family is going to do what we do each weekend, live aboard. I don't like leaving my boat unattended when there is a major crowd at the lake. Seems like that is when theft is highest. Hope it rains some more, water level is so low I can't get my boat out into the lake without kicking up mud. :(

We will be rafted out on the Illinois River just north of downtown Peoria, where they bring in a barge & shoot off the works from right in the water! It's cool
