Independence Day. A weekend of celebration of the birth of our nation on July 4, 1776. I often think about what stand what I take - be a loyalist to the British or a rebel and fight for freedom? I guess I do not have to ponder that question for long - I would be the rebel fighting for our cause of independence, a new beginning and freedom.
And I love fireworks. I am a fireworks chaser! Last night I went to see them at CPYC (Winthrop) where my little Mimi is moored. It was a great evening; the weather was perfect and not only was there the town sanctioned fireworks but there were quite a few extras along the beach. If it weren't for those pesky little no-see-ums (little flying bugs that bite) the evening would have been perfect. I had a front row place against the rail and enjoyed the opportunity to video a few segments of the displays.
But first, I am more than happy to say that Mimi has made it to her mooring safe and sound. Today I spent some time tuning her up to get ready for sailing. She has new rigging and lines and I am hopeful she will be smooth sailing!
Here she is, the little boat with the blue cover.
Let the fireworks begin!
Boston at night.
More fireworks tonight at a town nearby!
Hope you all had a great weekend and enjoyed the nice weather and celebrations!
