Happy 4th all.<br />
<br />
Our plans include grilling a tri tip and veggies before heading down to Weber point for the annual fireworks display.  Chris&#39;s building faces the point, so we go up onto the 7th floor and watch the firework from there.  Fewer people, no lines at the rest room and I love parking in a secured lot.<br />
<br />
The guys went off-book last night and did pretty well.  They were disappointed that they didn&#39;t do better - ended up with an extra reheasal on Saturday for their efforts, plus line throughs for the rest  of the process.  Heck, we open in a week&#33;  It&#39;s now or never.<br />
<br />
Finished the &#39;View of Carcasonne&#39; yesterday for the set - it was the last piece needed and the designer (not an aritist) was really worried about it until I volunteered to paint it for him.  Turned out okay, but I promised Chris that I&#39;d paint it out and do a Titanic painting for him.  <br />

Joey - the power grid will all depend upon whether or not someone else flies a plane into a high tension tower.  We are scheduled for 105 today and I&#39;m guess the pools will be pretty busy here.<br />
<br />
Kimmykat - sounds sort of similar to what I had, but my vertebra (L-3 -L5) disintegrated because of too much lifting at work.  Now I have a weight limit of ten pounds...sigh.   Still lots of pain, but at least I can walk now, before I couldn&#39;t.  It doesn&#39;t slow me down too much most days..well, I am slow but determined.  My goal now is to postpone any additional surgery as long as possible.  <br />
<br />
Hope everyone has a safe and sane 4th&#33;<br />
