We had a really great 4th

I hope everyone out there had a fun and safe 4th of July.  We're down in Flordia visiting my folks.  We were having a cookout on the beach when a really strong rain came in off the coast.  Between that and the strong wind, we were absolutely soaked.  But we stuck it out, and the rain passed and we had a nice cook out despite.  Afterwards we took the boys swimming.  The gulf was really rough after the storm, and Michael and Jacob (and us) had a wonderful time swimming, and getting bowled over by the waves as they crashed on the beach as the sun went down.  It was a profoundly normal, and wonderfully blissful time.  And unlike last year, they were OK with the fireworks after sunset.

I hope everone else had a great time.
