So we are in Miami for the fourth. It was an unexpected trip that we decided to take this past Monday. Didn't tell anyone that we were coming except Richard's mom cause we are staying with her. It is weird. Everything has changed, and yet some things are exactly the same. Huh? you ask, Well, the scenery changed so much. New homes, new shopping plazas on every corner. Things that never change? Roses sold by the dozen for five dollars at every street light in dade county, Asking for two loaves of cuban bread in the bakery and receiving a look of confusion because the girl behind the counter doesn't know what language you are speaking ( english ), Going into a grocery store and not being able to walk around with out stopping or being hit by a shopping cart. Yes, familiar yet very different. So tonight we are off to see the fireworks later tonight. The boys love the bright colored explosions in the sky. Tomorrow we are going to church. The church where I grew up, met Richard, and married him in. That church. That will be fun to see the pastor and his wife's face. It has been years. About 9 since we were last there. So, if Aunt Ranger sees this post, which I pray that she does, maybe she will go to church too so we can have a reunion. :o)
Great posts. Glad to see you back. I need something else to read beside Court Books. Please keep them arriving. :)

He cried, she hugged. It was really great to see them both. I will post pix of the fireworks on our end of the country.
