Well actually today is the 5th, but I was so freaking full/tired/driving/busy/relaxed yesterday that I didn't stand a chance of posting on the actual 4th.
Bridgit and I spent the day at Grandma Jo's who is My Wife's (Bridgit), Brother's, Wife's, Grandmother. There is always a baseball game followed by a huge meal and then finished up with capture the flag.
Dan and Betsy brought the stuff to do a Low-Country Boil. It involved:
two bags of redskin potatoes
lots of corn on the cob
seasoning
lemons
onions
9lbs. shrimp
8lbs sausage
4 heads of garlic
You boil all this together and then drain it and pour it on a table covered with newspaper. We all gathered around and ate until we could eat no more.
