Here's to a Happy USA 250th birthday!

What all have you guys got going on the 4th?
We are having what's turned into a Family tradition at our house -- big party with family and friends in our backyard, grilling and games during the day, fireworks at dusk.

(And yes, I started this chat really early because I'm calling it an early night. Got a trip up north tomorrow morning early)

I think I'm going to be hosting the BBQ this year for the family. Too many restrictions for fireworks and the cost has gotten out of control. Of the family doesn't bring anything I'll probably head up a hill with the GF to watch them over the city. There is a location where we can watch several cities do their big shows

Im just hoping we dont have rain. Its not often we get storms on the 4th, but right now its possible. Been in the 90s and humid all week, and that weather energy buildup usually doesnt end well.

The town I live in does a huge fireworks display at a park a few miles away. I climb up on the roof and get a decent view to enjoy. Will be cooking for about 20, swimming and cornhole. Enjoy and everyone be safe out there.
