As some of you may know Dr. Thompson is somewhat of a foodie.  And he loves to grill.  So we just picked up a bunch of baby back ribs for the weekend.  This year’s recipe comes from Gourmet Magazine.

Enjoy your 4th of July Holiday and remember to have plenty of dental floss on hand…. you’ll need it after these ribs!

Hooray for a holiday weekend!  And we’re taking Friday off for the holiday and my wife and I are playing some golf with friends!

Here is some information about community fireworks and parades happening this weekend.  I will add  more as we come across them this week.  I plan on firing up the grill and trying out a new Rib recipe for the 4th festivities.

As far as Red, White and Boom goes we typically hop on the motorcycle and head to the Cota Bus maintenance facility on McKinley Blvd about 9:40 armed with our “bag chairs” securely on the bike with bungee cords…. of course.  We might try Goodale Park this year because it’s mentioned as a good spot slightly away from the crowds.

Red White and Boom fireworks start at 10 PM on July 3rd and they are being shot off at Veterans Memorial.
