The big 250.... What are you doing this weekend?

We are getting together with friends for swimming, grilling, and playing board games. At night, we will watch fireworks from their place. We are still cobbling together the menu. So far we have:

Brats
Sweet Italian sausage
Fresh corn on the cob
All above to be grilled.

Sauerkraut
Sauteed peppers and onions

Sides are still being considered.

Cheesecake
Star-Spangled cake

Assorted snacks and drinks
 
Defiance- where my kids and grandkids live, are having their celebration is on the 3rd.
Ours here is on the 4th.
So, I may go to both 🤔
As far as food, I'm sure that'll be present 😉

I can see our local fireworks from the street out front, as well as the people behind me setting them off over the pond.
 
Looks like Mother Nature may cancel the fireworks for tomorrow night in Defiance.
Oh well, it's happened before 🤷‍♀️

Ocean fishing off my kayak. It is this weeks only safe weather day. Lots of great white encounters lately so I’ll be on the lookout. If I catch anything, I’ll do a quick Thai style whole fish fry.

At night, I’ll be sitting and sleeping on the living room floor hugging my trembling dog. He turns to goo at the percussion of this holiday.
 
Well, I have a page of To-Do's for this weekend, but it's likely that this is what I'll spend most of my time on:

But, right now, this is what I'm doing while bemoaning the weather on the news (John, thanks for reminding me that I had a small wheel of French Brie!):

I've been doing crossword puzzles, browsing Pinterest, doing my usual in and out on Facebook.
Just enjoying the cool calm staying inside.
Talked to Ty this afternoon.
He said they're just grilling hot dogs and he got some sparklers for the kids.

Tomorrow night a few of us are going to watch the fireworks from here.
