That’s the good thing about living by myself….it’s the only seat in the house for entertainment. I have one of the live cameras in St. Augustine, Florida pulled up and showing on my TV so I can watch the fireworks display. There’s a nice crowd gathered at the fort (officially, the Castillo de San Marcos National Monument), and it appears that the fireworks will go off over the St. John’s River. I hope everyone’s had a nice holiday here in America. I certainly hope everyone has been safe, especially around fireworks. I like nice and dull holidays. Two weeks from today my colonoscopy is scheduled, so you’ll forgive me for having a crappy attitude that weekend. After that, assuming everything’s okay with the scope (I’m not having any problems that would lead me to expect otherwise), I might take off for a jaunt through Ohio and West Virginia. Y’all have a great evening!

We didn't watch fireworks. We just listened to them until they stopped at 12:15 am!!!! I hope your colonoscopy goes OK. I hate them. Enjoy your day.

I don’t have a problem with the colonoscopy. It’s that prep that I can’t stand.

@LindaOHio — when I get to the age that they won’t knock me out then I’ll stop getting them, too.

@FourWalls I won't have another colonoscopy because the prep made me so sick. The actual procedure is not good because they won't give you enough anesthesia.

Hope you enjoyed your 4th of July. I have neighbors who put on a fireworks display almost as good as the Macy's one. Like you best seat in the house, it's my front porch. And No tickets needed P.S.- Maybe the colonoscopy news was a bit too much information. Thanks for sharing Hope it all comes out ok, I mean works out alright

Sounds good to watch in comfort and be safe. You have a wandering gene, it sounds like.

I like to search online the web cam in the area and "spy" what happens here around. Enjoy the fireworks.

It was quite nice. It was more fun watching the kids running around and playing on the grounds of the Fort.

So much better than being in the crowds this time of the year. And a lot cooler as well.

That sounds like it will be a fun trip after something so unpleasant. I predict positive news only.

It’s a regularly scheduled one, not because anything’s screwy. (Well, what’s screwy about me needs a longer scope to get up to my brain to see. )

After that I’m free until my brother’s colonoscopy in late August. He’s taking me to mine and I’m taking him to his.

Those live cameras are magic. There is so much you can see now just from your armchair.

Mike and went over to his Mom's yesterday afternoon and had lunch with her. We had a good time. Watched some of her favorite game shows, it's the only time we watch game shows. Didn't watch any fireworks. We have gone out to our porch before to watch the neighbors but didn't feel much like it last night. Praying for a good report from your upcoming exam. Looking forward to your posts on your adventures in West Virginia (where Mike was born) and Ohio (where he grew up)

I also hope everyone in the US was safe tonight. In Fort Worth near where I live there were several shooting on the 3rd. It was really sad.
