A hot but enjoyable 4th

It hit about 95 degrees yesterday. It was somewhat humid. As we passed 6 o'clock the temperature dropped a bit. I have to say that I have become a bit more tolerant of the heat as I've become older. Still as I write this I am sitting in air conditioned comfort and that's just fine with me. I had a very nice day and I let loose in the eating and drinking department. My brother in law did a terrific job manning the grill. I had the best barbecued chicken breast I have ever had. Though I like beer I'm not a big drinker. 1 or 2 and that's it. Yesterday I drank a 6 pack. Samuel Adams natch! Granted that was spaced over 6 hours. They tasted great. The food was wonderful and my other sister made up with my brother in law after a year and a half. Let me tell you that wasn't a great Christmas.
Anyway I briefly thought about going over to Cambridge to watch the fireworks across the river from Boston but quickly talked myself out of that. I could have watched from several locations in my town but who wants to see them from 5 miles away. So I watched them on television. I know the fireworks were broadcast nationally but locally the TV broadcast ran 2 hours earlier. I decided to try something. I set my camera on my crappy tripod in front of the television and in the movie mode I recorded most of the concert. I had my dvr record it as well but I have no way of getting any of that footage on to my computer and posted here. I have watched some of the recording and it came out ok so I made a much shortened version of the 1812 overture with the movie maker. The performance was about twelve minutes long but since you can only post at best, 4 minutes or 100 megabytes. I paired it down to about 3:45. Actually it's the last 3:45. When I get the chance I will try to throw something together with the fireworks display. The sound quality isn't the greatest and the video quality is ok considering it's a camera recording of a tv screen.

All in all I had pleasant day. I have no squawks to mention. Well I do have squawks but I'm not going to mention them. It's another hot day though it is sunny with a cloudless blue skies. For the rest of the day I will be chillin'. Maybe I'll crack open one more Sam.

I'm outta here.
