Happy July 4th in Photos

Independence day has been stretched into a multi-day celebration!

I've been on vacation all week, which has led to lots of time for relaxation and friends.  Let's see what I've been up to:
this week has been full of lots of lovely early morning runs
a crisp bev on July 3rd, watched the fireworks at Brown's Island
 Taking notes on how to fly with Brittany at Lewis Ginter Park
after our early morning hill workout
High-fivin' in the children's garden at Lewis Ginter with Whit
Mid-day pool day and family BBQ with Tappan.
Ran into my lovely Jean!
Biked (yes!!) over to a festival at the Hardywood Brewery for a minute
before realizing it was too hot/crowded to enjoy ourselves.
Ended the night with an amazing fireworks show at Dogwood Dell.
The Dogwood Dell fireworks production included this cannon,
which was unbelievable but did make my eardrums hurt.
Did you have fun on the 4th?
It was a great excuse to get together with friends and jump around town, I always love exploring new lil' events.

  3. Looks like you had lots of fun! We spent the 4th at the pool and a cookout. It was God-awful hot - shew! Saw in a previous post that you vacationed in Duck - we were there in early June! We rent a house there every year with family. One of my absolute favorite places.
