HAVE YE A HAPPY JULY 4th: It’s called the biggest weekend of the year. Lengthwise, the weekend itself is no different than any other, but add in an insane showing of the beach-huddled massesand fit in a flaring July 4th, and you truly have a wild and woolly coastal time of it.

Personally, I just kinda hang back and let the madness manifest. It’s a fun look-see. I get energized by even seeing folks in a full-blown fun mode.
