Wannabe Cowgirl

An "to give away" ad found in The Missoulian this morning while perusing garage sale postings:

2 hens, 2 roosters with cage. We're moving and the kid won't let us eat them. 880-6220

Happy Independence Day! The Best Husband Ever and I are still in New Jersey visiting my family. We've done and seen quite a bit, as well as had the opportunity to see missed friends and relatives. So far we've partied down at an Italian restaurant for a family reunion, walked the Brooklyn Bridge with my best friend and maid of honor, unearthed a crab, swum in the Atlantic, photographed a lighthouse (among other things), cheered the Yankees and Mets on in person, strolled the Boardwalk, indulged in ice cream/Polish water ice, and -- possibly best of all -- chilled out. Today we're heading back into New York City to visit my favorite touristy haunt, the Metropolitan Museum of Art. But we won't be hanging around for the fireworks. In fact, I hope to miss that rush of people entirely! I'll be quite satisfied with the local showing, if it doesn't get rained out. (Photo nabbed from the LA Times, of all places.)
