Independence Day at The Lake

We spent the Fourth of July holiday at our lake house, the "McKinney Relaxin' Shack." It's the big holiday at Pine Mountain Lake, and the place is packed. I got to see the fireworks show for the first time, and it was very nice indeed, watching from our neighbor's shore at the pyrotechnics reflected on the lake.

The festivities this year were tempered by concern for Candice's dad, who has been in the hospital with serious health problems. Now, Candice is planning a trip to BC to visit him and help out her family.

This on top of news that two of my old friends' fathers passed away: Tracy in San Jose and John in Australia. I guess I and my friends are all getting to that age when parents start going....
