Fourth of July
Today is Independence Day for us Americans, and the weather in Poland could not be better for it. It is sunny and hot. Exactly the type of weather we would want to celebrate the birth of our country while living in another one.
We have a guest visiting us this weekend. Our friend Daria from Szczecin came down for a few days. It is great that she can be here to help us set off some firecrackers and then help explain to the neighbors why we are setting off firecrackers. This evening our co-workers, the Kieffers, will also be coming over for a time of grilling and fun.
Unless I'm mistaken, this is my 7th fourth of July outside of the US. That's almost 1 out of every 4. Oh well, if we can't celebrate the 4th in America then at least we will celebrate it with friends.
