I think everyone loves celebrating the July 4th holiday weekend; I know it’s one of my all-time favorites!
Come tomorrow morning, I’ll be all set to head out to enjoy a day down on the sand, basking in the glorious sun and taking advantage of the great mid-80’s temperatures we’ve been having. On Sunday, my family and I plan to celebrate Independence Day at the Stars & Stripes Explosion, a showcase of great live music at the Oceanfront capped off by a breathtaking fireworks display over the Atlantic Ocean. If you’re like us, you’ll grab your beach blankets and head down early to snag a few spots in the sand before the “oohs” and “aahs” start at 9:30 p.m. (more…)
