It's a wild one - Watch Out!

I'm sitting here laughing thinking I'm probably the luckiest person ever!

That doesn't mean crazy things don't happen to me (i.e. 4 tows in 6 mo) but it really helps you see the really great things in life. :)

I think the most important thing I've ever learned is how amazing it is to be able to laugh through just about everything, especially since whatever is over that hump is better than what you've just experienced, it can always get better. :)

I also have some advice - Get the Extended Warranty!! (you never know what may happen)

Okay, on to one of the Best 4Th's I've ever had. (I had a very large Barq's so I may be a little blah, blah, I'll try to control it) :)

We made great time getting there, the hotel we found was pleasantly vacant and only an hour and a half away from the best fireworks show I've ever seen. I think I squealed the entire show, much to the annoyance of Stacy! :)

We ate in PA at Bella Italia and I had the Best Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo, ever, and really I'm like an aficionado when it comes to Fettuccine Alfredo. The wine wasn't bad either. :) YUMMMM!!!!

We checked out the book stores and barely escaped the parade before heading to Forks for the show. That town is tiny! It had one big park, a few espresso stands, eclectic buildings, demolished cars from the derby, and I believe I've already mentioned the fireworks...

The next day we checked out the rest of Forks and La Push (I could do the drive in my sleep now, well as long as I opened them for the curves) :) The views from 101 were breathtaking, simply amazing to see. I found the greatest worry rock on First Beach and a couple of other's that were pretty cool. Also, the nicest lady works at the Chamber of Commerce - so helpful! We got some souvenirs and took Lots of pictures!

We had some slight car trouble along the way home, for some reason I've got a way with transmissions, both manual and automatic. It's a gift that I'm hoping to work into only using for good from now on. :)

I missed my Ros and I'm glad to be home, partly cuz I have a lot of work to catch up on!! :)
