Alas our favorite 4th, take vacation to Hilo, rent house in HPP on beach, spend some $ at local grocery on fireworks, go out on lava and set them off with our kids now 24 and 25 years old, sit on lanai have BBQ (usually Kahlua porker) with mai tai in hand, take a swim in pool. Oh sooo sad for us this year we will not be on BI, our loss, and oh BTW we did invest in our kids also, both college grads with good jobs, hoipefully with support their parents in our old age [] Should be able to invest in kids and have a little fun along the way.[:p]
