We're in Ohio and a lot of our neighbors seem to have some awfully noisy sparklers...

Well...

Tomorrow's rehearsal is a "10 out of 12": 11:00am to 11:00pm - with a dinner(/nap) break from 4:00pm-6:00pm. Wednesday too. The rest of the week follows a similar schedule with rehearsals in the afternoon followed by run and/or previews in the evening. In other words, it's gonna be a long week. So...

Goodnight.

Great photos, Ginny.

Thanks, DR John G - were you in Middletown in 1976?
I was in Middletown circa 1984-1985.

Thanks!  We actually had a great time last night sailing on my brother's boat.  It was just the three of us and my sister's husband.  It was a beautiful night and we had a very peaceful sail.  One of the nicest times we've had together in a long time

Vixmom, the fireworks are allowed to be sold by state law, but most of the cities have banned them. As has my county in unincorporated areas, the US Forest land, etc.

Impromptu grilling get-together tonight. We did steaks, mushrooms and my entire eggplant harvest (2) on the grill, plus more dishes than necessary, including potatoes, green beans, a cucumber salad, a mixed green salad, a tomato-cucumber salad, corn on the cob, and who knows what all else. Caramel brownies, ice cream and blueberries for dessert.

All for just seven people and thrown together last night.

I shall enjoy the leftovers for lunch the next few days.

Still, I missed the fireworks.

I hope all the people who celebrated today had a great one.

Spent the evening with a great group of friends and spectacular fireworks in the backyard.

Even reconnect with an old friend.

Hearing lots of fireworks.  Boo jumped on my lap when the big ones were going off at the Country Club.  Now that those are over, the cats seem fine. I could open the windows, but I think it will be quieter with the ac on and the windows closed.  I got very little sleep last night as the neighbors on both sides of my parent's place were partying very late and the hide a bed was very uncomforatble.
