It had been above 100 degrees for the past 8 days, so we opted out of the (lame) parade downtown, out of the chalk art at Ann Morrison Park, and out of parks, barbeques, or outside picnics completely. We went to a matinee movie, McFarland USA, at the discount theater, and then took Terry's mom out to dinner.
We loved the movie. It was fun going together. Terry and I aren't big movie watchers. I think we still have been to less than 10 movies at theaters in our whole marriage. We're probably getting close to 10. We definitely don't average 1 a year, maybe 1 every 2 years. It was a cool inside and a real treat. We ate protein bars and drank water. What weirdos!
We went to Applebees at about 5:00 that afternoon. The place was practically deserted. Maybe we were the only whimps that bailed on all outdoor activities. It was nice visiting with Felice. We got home at about 8:00 and I was wiped-out. I don't know what it was, but I went to bed by 9:00 and didn't hear anything all night. Terry said it sounded like our neighbors were launching rockets at about 11:30, but I slept through everything.
It wasn't a traditional 4th of July. The only thing patriotic I did was put our flag out, but we had a cool day.
