So tell me girls...how are you celebrating our country's birthday? Bells, whistles, fireworks? We will go to the fireworks tonight, but today I don't know what we are going to do. Barb arrived yesterday afternoon and is still sleeping at 8:30 and so is Earl. I have been awake for hours trying to be quiet so the sleepers can slumber on. I am unable to sleep to late anymore. Must be a sign of old age.
This time next week I might be in Ohio. Barb hasn't told me for sure whether she is going to ride to Ohio with me or not, but she seems to be leaning that way.
There are a lot of activities going on around the area. There is a Croaker Festival in Oriental with a parade that Miss Croaker will ride in. Who doesn't want to see a parade honoring a fish I wouldn't want to eat? I would like to go just to see if Miss Croaker lives up to her name.
In New Bern there is a picnic the Tryon Palace is sponsoring depicting an 1830 time period picnic. There will be costumes and period games. I helped make the bonnets in the costume shop that the ladies will be wearing.
In Beaufort there is an Arts and Crafts thingy the Historical Society has every year. A lot of local artists. Beautiful pictures, but very pricey.
Then there are fireworks in Havelock, New Bern, Morehead City, Altantic Beach and Beaufort. So what do you think we should do? Earl has already said he would go to the fireworks, but nothing else during the day. We might just go to the beach with the thousands of other people that will be there.
I hear one of the sleepers moving around so bye for now. Have a fun 4th of July!
