That's pretty cool, the Cape is about an hour and a half away from me North. I went practicaly went 3 months without internet, I realized how much more I get done without it

I know what you mean. My productivity takes a big hit when the Macworlds are in session!
Any good suggestions for site seeing or restaurants?

Sorry dude, I do all my sea food around here. Clam cakes and chowda' at Oakland Beach, The Chowder House at Rocky Point, and Scarborough Beach in Rhode Island. I don't go to the Cape much often enough to be able to suggest anything altough I'm sure there are really good places there.

hey Dev, I don't know how far you're traveling to get to the Cape but I'm sure Newport R.I. has a better show for fireworks than the Cape. I did Neport once to often tis why the D.C. trip this year.

I haven't decided yet. It looks like we are either flying up to Montreal, 'cause it's a cool city, flying to Baltimore so the little Miss can see her sister and we can catch the fire works at the Inner Harbor, or maybe Lake Placid, just because I like that little town, and I don't need to fly there. It's driving distance!

July 1st is Canada Day, our national holiday up here in the great white north. As we have been similiarly hit by recent gas price hikes, I'm sure this may be a factor in the travel plans of Canadians for the upcoming long weekend. Nevertheless, our freeways will be packed with folks headed north to cottage country here in Southern Ontario.
By the way, our price for gasoline is presently around 78 cents a litre. Translated for my American friends, that's about US$2 a gallon. How does that compare for our fora friends from far and wide?

We always go visit friends just outside of State College, PA on the 4th. They have the greatest fireworks I've ever seen. A couple of years ago they had stuff flying from a couple of different mountain tops, the rockets echoing and answering each other. It was sweet--a word I've learned from my 11-year old son.

On Independence Day, what better way to show loyalty for your country than getting a bunch of explosives and blowing up a small chunk of it?
HAPPY 4th OF JULY EVERYBODY!!!!!!

How do you measure a man?
By how many miles of electrical wire he can strip in a day with his teeth, of course.
