"Yankee doodle, keep it up,
Yankee doodle dandy;
Mind the music and the step,
And with the girls be handy."

This 4th of July, actually my first 4th of July celebration, I was very lucky to have spent it with C nearby the Iwo Jima Memorial. The fireworks were spectacular. Nothing beats watching fireworks shoot up over the Washington Monument. Sorry Disney, these put you to shame!!! It was quite the experience, being a bear and all I was fortunate to be spared of the nasty bites that mosquitoes give. Others in attendance got some NASTY bites! It was a short walk from Georgetown about 2 miles. Too bad it was ridiculously hot & humid, as is expected in DC. Ugh, if it wasn't for the heat the walk over might have been bearable. But oh well! I had a blast! I hope everyone enjoyed their 4th this year. I know I did! :)
