Subject: How cool is that, Tim. Sounds like a great time. I have 2 things planned.. Author: sdmike1 as sdmike : member since December, 2005 : 14765 posts Posted on: 2008-07-03 12:28:08

We have a block party each year on our quiet street, and this year is no different. We have about 50-70 people from the street set up pop-up shade and tables on the road, we roll out our BBQ's and kegerators, and we hang out. We usually do a chili cook-off, have a parade with all the kids riding their bikes following our neighbor's convertible vette, and fun stuff like that.

My second task is to finish a bathroom remodel in the morning. All I have left to do is the floor. Just have to pull up the toilet, tear up the original linoleum, scrape the floor, and lay down tiling. With the kids and wife at the party I'll have peace and quiet to finish my job.

Enjoy your 4th!
