Super 4th of July

11 pounds of ribs on the grill, just waiting to be devoured.












Tyler did his fair share of devouring the ribs!











We enjoyed a time in the pool, and some bodacious ribs off the grill along with baked potatoes, corn on the cob and green beans...all all-American Fourth of July meal if there ever was one...before heading to a 9:55 p.m. showing of "Superman Returns." The 2 1/2 flick was a good one, although I am disappointed in one plot device that is so obvious you will know what it is when you first see it. It makes me sad that we have to take heroes who stand for truth, justice and the American Way, and make them just like the post-modern world in which we live. Otherwise, it was an entertaining movie, with plenty of super-sized action. Getting home at 1:00 a.m. makes me a little bleary eyed this morning, but at least I don't have to drive to Kissimmee and work while also finishing up writing a paper. Ha!
