Happy Fourth!

We have had a quiet and soggy Fourth. Nearly 10 inches of rain has fallen over the past three days, and it is thundering now as I type. I don't know whether the fireworks will go off as scheduled or not, but we seldom go to watch them anyway.

The OES meeting for last night was cancelled, but the potato salad turned out really good. We had that with hot dogs last night and tonight for supper. DH and I made a junk food run and are replete with candy, nuts, chips, ice cream, etc. for the next week or so.

I thought about hitting some of the holiday sales, but did laundry and other inside jobs instead. I also watched a couple of baseball games--the Astros lost, the Rangers are ahead in the 6th inning.
We are big Astros fans, the Rangers are second best. We were watching the game on TV when Craig Biggio got his 3000th hit. We started watching the Astros when Nolan Ryan was still pitching, and now his son owns the local AA farm team, the Hooks.

Hot dogs and baseball--not a bad Fourth of July after all!
