Happy Fourth of July Everyone! I hope you are all having a wonderful weekend. We had a gorgeous Saturday here and we went biking (motor – biking) with friends. It was a great stress reliever and nice time for Al and I just to get away for an afternoon.
I came home Saturday happy and extremely warm. I finished up two books I have been reading and wrapped up an audio as well. Reviews will be coming up over the next few days. Not a lot to say this morning as I have an early commitment today – but have a safe and happy 4th everyone! 😀



Have a wonderful fourth!
Thanks Jill! You too! 😀
Have a great 4th of July! Be safe!
Thanks Sharon! Happy fourth to you as well!
Happy Fourth of July, Sheila! I used to love riding a motorcycle, but where are your helmets? 🙂
We had them – we were stopped at the time this was taken 🙂
I love what you did to Coffee Cup for today! Happy Fourth!
Thanks Hannah – got to love Picnik on Facebook 😀
Happy Fourth to you too!!!
Yeah, Picnik is fun. I haven’t played with it in awhile now, though. I usually just use Photoshop on my husband’s computer. 😀
Glad to hear you had a great day yesterday-we are having cool cool weather here-great for a 30 mile ride not so good for the beach-I finished off Saving CeeCee Honeycutt and baked hummingbird cupcakes and rice krispie squares before heading off to the beach yesterday.
Humingbird cupcakes??? I am coming over Esme. Pick me up at the airport 😀
Coffee Cup is celebrating too, I see! Love it!
What a fabulous time you have everyday…even when you’re working, you always seem to find the joy in the moments.
I enjoy reading your posts with all the wonderful tidbits…
Happy Fourth!
Laurel you are so sweet – than you! 😀 I do try to find the joy – for many reasons…
happy Fourth to you as well!
Happy Fourth of July!
To you too Lisa! 😀
Have a great July 4th yourself, my Sunday Song post today is dedicated to all my American friends.
LindyLouMac – Oh I will have to pop on over 🙂 Thanks!
My husband and I are going for a motorcycle ride today. It is relaxing, isn’t it? Have you guys ever been to Sturgis, South Dakota? We did that years ago. It is somethin’ to see, that’s for sure! lol We also went to Daytona for Bike Week one year. My husband is a Harley guy; I just go along for the ride. When my son goes to college we’re going to do a road trip to see the Grand Canyon and other sites. Wouldn’t that be fun on a motorcycle? Just ride for a week or 10 days?
Have a great 4th, Sheila!
Lynne – the whole motorcycle thing is fairly new to us. We have friends who have done Sturgis, but not us.
We may go on a road trip in late August through Canada and around the North Shore…. havent figured out if we can get away to do it yet. 🙂
Really? Your husband’s attire makes him look like he’s been riding forever. A Canada road trip would be AMAZING! You should go if you can. Imagine the memories you’d make…
Lynne I think he looks like a character out of that movie Wild Hogs – LOL 🙂
I think our only concern on the ride is that we really have not done any long distance riding…. no turning back once you are out there you know…. and we have no real experience riding in poor weather (ok, two concerns…LOL)
What a great picture! You both have those smiles that look actually happy rather than totally staged. Have a great fourth!
Thanks Trisha – you too! 😀
Nice picture of you & Al. My hubby has a Harley as well. I don’t ride with him too often, but he plans at least one big trip every year. I think it is Montana this year. A few years back him & a buddy made it all the way down to Mexico!
Julie – fun! I usually let Al go alone too – I have enough of my own outlets (biking roller blading….) 😀
Happy 4th to you too! Great pic!
Thanks Amused!
Happy 4th to you as well, Sheila! Nice picture of you two.
Thanks Kay!
Have a safe and happy 4th of July!
You too Vasilly! 😀
I love coffee cup with fireworks…have a wonderful day…
You too Patty! 😀
You both look so happy and relaxed! What a great way to relieve stress and have fun. I don’t see helmets in the photo…please tell me you wear them (how’s that for a mom comment?!)
We do wear helmets Helen – and I thought of that when we took the picture. We had stopped at a friends cabin and we had just got back on the bike when the picture was taken. 🙂
Fabulous picture Sheila! Happy 4th of July. 🙂
Thanks you Jill – you too! 😀
Looks like a fun day!!
It was Staci! 😀
I LOVE this picture 😀
Thanks Juju!
I you and your family had a wonderful and safe 4th of July.
Thanks Ryan – to you too – hope you are healing from your recent injury!
I am a weeeee bit late but….they say better late than ‘being so idiotic as not to find time to wish someone the 4th of July at least somewhat before the festivities end’ ! So, Happy 4th Sheila !!
I was busy with a fever that would not go away. I tried my level best to ditch it…I read a Robin Cook, a Patterson, a Dickens……….but it only went after I started to read the morning news….[ actually after that, I started coughing ].
I hope your fourth was good Fiza – sorry to hear about the fever!
My kind of woman!! We traded in our Harley for a boat and convertible. I do miss the freedom of the open road on the bike though. I hope you had fun!
It is fun – and we are fairly new to the biking world”. 🙂
Hope you had a great 4th. The weekend started off well. I missed being with my hubby, but we went down to the river with my Dad (I am at my sister’s) and watched fireworks. My sister’s friend set off quite a display. Three other people on our side of the river and four across the river were also setting them off. From our spot we could see the fireworks in Williamsburgh, Busch Gardens, and Yorktown. The weather was perfect and made for a pleasant evening.
