A Relaxing 4th of July

Independence Day. I love this holiday: the barbeques, the fireworks, the time with friends and family. I saw many people outside this afternoon enjoying these things as I took Ernie for a long walk. I myself did not partake in such festivities. Instead, I spent a much-need day at home. I gave Ernie a bath, cleaned the bathroom, vacuumed, did laundry, and watched Open Range. Not a traditional way to celebrate our nation’s birth, but very enjoyable nonetheless.
