Certainly nice here. I get a free fireworks show tomorrow as well.My enigma is there a better weekend than the 4th of July?
It was great. I feel like 4th of July should get a little more hype/build up.

As a general rule, if you've lived your whole life in one place, then the tendency is to compare that place with some ideal perfect society that never existed. If you have lived in various places, then you evaluate the good and bad aspects of each. The people I know who love America the most are a married couple who grew up separately in the USSR and met here in NYC.Sadly its become popular to hate the US.
