UPDATE TIME, Happy Birthday America!
This is probably my favorite holiday of the year -- not because I love America the best, but because I love feeling real summer. When I was a kid, the 4th came only a few weeks after school ended, and it was like a big bash welcoming me to summer. I also completely love fireworks.
On this particular weekend, I went to Montpelier, the capitol of my newly adopted state, to spend time with Rose, one of my very best friends. We did wayyy too many things to list here, but there was swimming going on, maple creemees, strawberry shortcake, an alligator gar fish, and of course the parade and fireworks (from the roof top of a restaurant downtown). It was grrreat!
Also, I love my job so much. The work and the conversations I get to have with my awesome coworkers every day are stimulating and hilarious. I cannot believe I am getting paid for this. Actually, I can, because I'm not getting paid very much.
Anyway, summertime rules, Vermont rules, archaeology rules, and spending time with Rose rules. Am I lucky or what?
