Its on a Friday this year so for most people its a 3 day weekend.
I think we are just staying local this year maybe hit up Huntington Beach or something along those lines...
It will be crowded but should be a good time!

So what does everyone else have planned for the 4th?

Outside of Pula. We have never been but we hear great things about it. We have friends that will be there that we will be staying with. They used to live there so they will be giving us the "locals" tour. Looking forward to it. If you were in the same area I would like to here ideas of things to do/see. We will be there for 5 days and then returning back to Germany for the rest of our vacation.

I'm staying local, I went to Parker on Memorial Day and I never seen so many cop boats on the water. 4 cop boats and the buckskin fire boat, they were on the jet skiers asses for jumping wakes. They got one of em on a DUI. to much action to put my boat on the water, so i'll pass this 4th.

That's an incredible bike ride. I rode my bike by my lonesome to Yosemite and all over the Sierra's and Bass Lake back in the mid eighties. There was no helmet law back then so a lot of that journey was with shorts and a tennis shoes. When you guy's go to Yosemite make sure you go to Glacier Point, the best panoramic view you'll ever see...

When I was a kid we use to play around a lot with calcium carbide aka Bang Site. Back then (early 70's) we use to make our own home made cannons. Last week I put my order in for a couple of tubes of Bang Site and some water proof fuse. I received those orders this week and rounded up the rest yesterday. The kid is back...

No lake or river for me, but the neighbors have spoken, we're doing a block party, a lot of us all hang out anyway...

Heading for Havasu Landing on Thursday. Not sure what the plan is for Friday, block party on Sat. Prolly leave the boat in the garage and float with the neighbors in front of the pad.

Local parade on Friday morning, maybe the sis-in-laws place in HB for the afternoon and back local for fireworks. Probably a BBQ at my house on Saturday. Relaxing Sunday.
