Well, it is Fourth of July weekend and that means it is what I call High Summer. Anyway, it has been a fun three days since the Fourth is on Monday this year. I actually started the holiday on Friday with a fire in the pit and test run with my camp percolator.

Making coffee the old fashion way. |
On Saturday I went to Roan Mountain for what is now an annual event, Glen's family's cookout, and fireworks. I have honored that Glen lets me tag along because the food is always good (especially the chicken) and help with the fireworks. On

Sunday, we started the day with a great breakfast of waffles courtesy of Terry and some of the homemade maple syrup my Dad and I made back in March. Terry's brother, Shawn, and sister-in-law, Susan were in for the weekend. So, later in the day we had a cookout with steaks, plenty of veggies from the garden it turned out well.

On the Fourth proper, we had another great breakfast and then a more traditional cookout. We had hamburgers, but while Deb and Terry had beef, Dad and I had venison. We got done just in time as some storms rolled through. That meant we watched fireworks from Washington DC and New York City. With that said it was a good holiday after all.
