It's Independence Day

Not a whole lot of fireworks in Portland.   The laws here are very strong against it.  We spent the day in Long Beach, Washington yesterday.  Angel's parents have a beach house there.  We drove the Astoria Bridge which is 4 miles long across the Columbia between Oregon and Washington.  Spectacular scenery.  The weather is fantastic.  Was 94 in Portland and 75 at the beach.  Tonight we will celebrate the 4th exploding what is acceptable in Oregon and hang out with the rest of the neighbors that didn't leave town.   Car rental is scheduled for Monday and off to Eastern Washington to spend a week with Michelle and Alexis.  Just love being with family.  My Chicago family is sorely missed and won't be seeing them this summer.  They sent photos of the wedding reception and will post some when I can figure it out.  Might have to do it the old fashion way and print them at Walgrens.  God bless all who read this.  May today be a day of remembrance and prayer.  Until next time.
