4th of July!!!


Happy 4th of July to everybody! The 4th of July in Los Angeles was HOT, but being surrounded by great people, and doing fun things made it all worthwhile! In the late morning / early afternoon, I attended the annual Mosaic 4th of July barbecue at Elysian Park, a park which incidentally, I had never been to before! It was set up and organized this year by a group of interns, a group of individuals I've been getting to know over the past few weeks! They did a great job making the BBQ fun and exciting, although I have to say that after playing some very intense volleyball and ultimate frisbee, I was glad that I had brought along an extra t-shirt! After the barbecue, my friend Kent and I went to Dodger Stadium and watched the Dodgers lose to the Atlanta Braves. Despite the gloom of the Dodgers losing (especially to Atlanta), it was a great way to further celebrate the 4th. There was an Air Force flyover by the largest plane I've ever seen in my life, and the game was followed up by one of the best displays of fireworks I've seen as well. I guess that makes sense, given that it was sponsored by AAA, and I know they've been making tons of money off of people like me, who subscribe to membership and then only use their service to bail out friends! Tomorrow I hope to finish carpeting the garage!!! We'll see how it all goes down!
