Happy Fourth of July!
Today was amazing! I slept in after a wonderful weekend with my sister and then caught up on writing my blogs. I had originally been scheduled to work at Cranky's from 3 till close but my favorite regular, Kevin, informed me that he stopped by to say hi. I said I didn't work till 3 and he said that Cranky's is closing at 4:00 today. I immediately called Lyndsey, the manager and asked about that. She said "Yeah you don't need to come in." I said "but I was scheduled till close tonight." She said "Yeah I don't know how that happened. I'm so sorry." I said no big deal and then started thinking about all the things I could possibly do now that I didn't have to work. Literally, about 5 minutes later Phil called me and said "what are you doing tonight? Come with me and Susan to Dave Cooks house for a Barbeque." He didn't have to ask me twice. I thought it was the perfect way to

spend the Fourth of July.
I thought it might be awkward because there would be all these married couples there but it wasn't. I enjoyed the evening very much. Dave and his wife have a beautiful apartment with a huge patio. This isn't very common. We were able to see a very impressive view of the city and we had delicous food and good conversations. The sunset was absolutely gorgeous and then once it turned dark we looked out into the sky and saw fireworks going off everywhere. It was the best fireworks show I've ever seen. When the celebration began at Battery Park we could see the fireworks through the Chrysler Building and the Met Life Building across the river. It was sooo cool. I was very thankful to spend the evening with the Oettles and the Cooks. What a great Fourth of July!
