Happy 4th

[RGINN]

Got to be off for the 4th this year, which happens about every 3 or 4 years, so I checked out the parade on Main Street. Not a whole lot interesting, but every so often they have some pretty cool cars. I noticed when the flag passed in review, only me and about 5 other old guys (pretty sure they were vets) in my block stood up, removed our hats, placed them over our hearts as it passed. Maybe decorum has changed. I will give the crowd credit, they cheered loudly and applauded. Ol Red Tail led up the rear and I guess he's switched over to prospector from mountain man. Haven't seen the official numbers, but we get about 10,000 or more visitors descend on us for this holiday, and I wonder how many were disappointed to find out there are absolutely no fireworks allowed in this county anymore.

We went up and watched the 4th of July parade in Breckenridge maybe close to years ago now. Afterwards we had dinner at a Bubba Gump restaurant. One of the kids had spaghetti O's from the kids menu and it cost like 15 bucks. I began to grumbled about that and mama said to cool-it and just enjoy the moment together and not ruin a good time.

The proper response to when a restaurant hoses you is visit the restroom. Find a roll. Roll up your sleeve and firmly lodge said roll so as your elbow is wet. Wash your arm. Dry arm. Unroll sleeve. Take a dump. Wipe up. Do NOT flush. Be very polite to everyone. Smile all the way home.

I can almost hear him say to Jeremiah Johnson "you still alive pilgrim, you've done well to keep all that hair atop" 😁
