What's everyone doin' for 4th of July?

JaceTheAce · June 30th, 2006, 00:02

Tomorrow I am fleeing Grand Forks. I'll be in Califor-nee-a in Lake Tahoe at the family cabin... yay! I arrive into Reno, Nevada (Best Little City In The World, as it's called) and will be staying at Harrah's with my brother. His flight arrives almost the same time. I'll be doing some gambling at the big boy casinos...then on Saturday it's off to Lake Tahoe, CA (30 minutes west) for a nice relaxing vacation.

Seems like most people are fleeing Grand Forks for the holiday...where are y'all going?

edubs · June 30th, 2006, 00:58

I, of course, will be working at Trader Joe's. The usual...work work work! Someone have a beer for me, k!?!!?!?

amd87 · June 30th, 2006, 02:19

work

JaceTheAce · June 30th, 2006, 02:23

Oh a beer sounds so good right now. I'm still packing. I am bringing my whole house with me, it seems.

TheShocker · June 30th, 2006, 04:40

I'll try to see if i can catch the Macy's fireworks on the East River here. If not, prolly a road trip with the family

Stone Cold · June 30th, 2006, 07:54

Getting drunk off my a$$ here in STP since I have nothing better to do...away from home, no chance of getting called, getting paid, and don't feel like sitting in a crashpad. MSP watch out!!!!

Tx....

Do you have somewhere you are going? If you just want to drink and watch fireworks, give me a ring. I am 20-30 mins west of the MOA and will be at home. Drinking, Grilling, and watching fireworks. You can see the city's firecrackers right from my deck.......

MrLeisure757 · June 30th, 2006, 10:56

I'll be working at the airport. So just like last year, I'll go up to the top of the tower and watch the fireworks from the different towns on the island.

UAL747400 · June 30th, 2006, 12:59

Since most of my friends are probably going to have stage checks next week, we're having our party tonight. We've got a T.V., a couch, a recliner, and a couple cans of old gas. If only my dad could send me up these fireworks my friends and I back home affectionatly call "Tom bombs".(apparently named that since I'm the one that brings them I guess haha

) If we could only start this inferno with those.

Don't worry, were doing the fire THEN getting silly drunk. The other way around would probably be kinda dangerous.

Doesn't Fargo have an airshow around this time of year?!?

stuckingfk · June 30th, 2006, 15:57

Lake Metigoshe for me.

I'm finally back in Grand Forks after being gone for a few weeks. Now I'll be gone for anohter week.

Leaving Grand Forks for extended periods of time makes this place tolerable!

AngelFuree · June 30th, 2006, 22:01

Ha, I don't know....I might be here...egh...

Sorry for the earlier post...didn't realize I was in the UND forums

UAL747400 · July 2nd, 2006, 18:17

Yeah, gotta be careful with that since the UND forum is like the third most active forum on here. Which may or may not be sad.

I'm sorry, I dont think I can pull that off

JaceTheAce · July 6th, 2006, 12:21

Well, my 4th of July vacation was great! Did lots of hiking in the California wilderness and enjoyed the snow-capped mountain views, swimming in Lake Tahoe, scent of the pine trees, twisty mountain roads, and excellent food!

I'll post pics soon...
