Happy Independence Weekend

I hope that everyone has a good Holiday.

My plan is to ignore all the “News” and enjoy some simple peace & quiet.

I’ve got a good supply of bourbon. Plenty of ice, and some decent burgers for the grill. 

No plans to go anywhere, no plans to see anyone.

If a friend drops by they’ll be welcomed, but with gas prices as high as they are I doubt anyone will make the pilgrimage.

I’m looking forward to getting some writing done, and playing with the dog.

The dog is not interested in playing too much when it’s hot. I know he’d be much happier if we lived in Alaska. At temps above 75°F he lives for ice cubes bouncing out of the icemaker. 

I don’t think he could possibly be a cheaper companion to have around. Ice cubes or cold carrots and he’s over the moon.

Happy 4th of July.

Happy Birthday America.
