4th of July

The 4th of July has come and gone without a usual proper firework display at the harbor.  I had to work anyway, but we had the 3rd off together. And it's been hot... upper 80s. So we went fishing early. Joe was rewarded with a very nice 21" brown trout! 
We had a bit of beach time later in the day, too. 

A few of our neighbors hosted a garage/ driveway party on the 4th. By the time we joined after work and the outdoor temperature to cool a little, most of them were quite well-marinated. But we stayed to watch their impressive firework display, and it was fun. 
And on Monday I made sushi rolls with the fish Joe caught the other day. Hope everyone is having some summer fun.
