My favorite 4th of July tradition is watching the Block Island parade on the deck of Sullivan Real Estate with Gail, Cindy and the whole gang.  Add in their homemade lemonade and a perfectly grilled hot dog, and the day is complete!

Happy 4th! Now that Arthur has traveled thru Cape May we will watch the fireworks at Congress Hall Hotel tonight and on 7/5 celebrate with the crowds who flock to this little island (yes, Cape may is an island) to watch the parade pass along Beach Avenue. Trying to dig out a red, white and blue outfit now!

We read the Declaration of Independence and look for William Floyd’s signature. He is the great great great grandfather of my. Daughters, Patricis and Nicolle.

Mary, I took about 10 pictures of that Jeep!
It is the perfect 4th of July car – the best.

I will let Eddie know, he is so proud of his first car, he reclaimed it recently (it was our original Jeep Jeep 25 yrs ago, and was still on Island), restored it to run perfectly, and yes, we all agree, its the perfect 4th July car! Eddie now resides in LA, but visits frequently, especially to drive his car to the beach!

I can send you my pics too!

My favorite Fourth of July tradition is going out with my family on our Parker boat, parking in Diamond Cove and enjoying a little wine, cheese and crackers before watching the fireworks from Casco Bay!

Love the pictures. It all looks so idyllic. On the 4th of July I enjoy being with immediate and extended family at our house at Seabrook Island, SC , watching fireworks on the golf course and of course the parade.

Love South Carolina! We used to go to Litchfield and Edisto to the beach.
