So, anything cool going on for the 4th? - Page 2

Our City does a July 3rd thing each year, a carnival/concert, with fireworks. That may be worth a wander, but the 4th is clear so far...

If anyone is in my neck of the woods, I'll be watching 1776 (as usual) and dining on hot dogs and potato chips.

Santa Monica College does a pretty good show the Saturday before the 4th. I run into some friends there that I only see once a year, and another friend is on the pyro crew ... so I'm really sad I'll be missing that while I'm camping in the mountains.

But it's another

officially-recommended 4th of July Fireworks Show.

ETA: Heheh - I watch 1776 every 4th also ... what are the chances of two such geeks posting on the same message board? Yes, I know there is a significant geek population here ... but American-Revolution-Musical-Theater geeks are unique

My boss invited me & my boyfriend to go boating with him & other friends on July 3rd. We'll be relaxing on the boat as we watch the firework show at Catalina. However, my boyfriend has to work! I'll definitely go alone if it gets me out of working. Heck, I'll go naked & wear a life vest completely made out of weights if it gets me out of working.

As for July 4th, I have made no plans! Last year my boyfriend & I stayed at a cabin & went camping. If I never do that again, it will be too soon. In retrospect, I had a blast, but as I was outside watching fireworks, a BAT swooped and grazed my head. I watched the rest of the firework extravaganza bent over. Good thing drunken horny frat boys weren't present.

AllyOops! + rustic outdoors = notsomuch.

I would be completely fine just zoning out & watching the Twilight Zone marathon. I dedicate myself to doing that every year, and somehow end up at a party or BBQ. Not that I'm complaining.

Oooh, there's a Twilight Zone marathon on the 4th?

Mousey Girl · 06-27-2007, 08:50 AM

I will probably be sitting at home, alone, on the 4th. it all depends on if boy wants to stay home with me or go with the other. If he stays home with me he has to understnad there would be very few fireworks.

We're going to my dad's house for a day of hanging out with old people and eating hot dogs. Kill me now.

wow. good question. Ive been so concentrated on prepping for Camp Swank and other mini-projects, I forgot I'll have some extra days when I get back.

Ponine · 06-27-2007, 09:30 AM

Days? Your work lets you have more than one day off?
Lucky.

Me too! Boo.

Was at Disneyland last year. It wasn't super crowded either. Until later.

Not sure what I am doing this year. Probably a bbq at a friends house after I go see Transformers.
