July 4th long weekend (Thursday)

July 3 found us running errands in Montrose, of top priority, get 3 large rolls (total 400 pages) of building plans from the print shop.

We are still using the loaner vehicle from the mechanic shop, and decided to put some money into getting it detailed as a thank you. During the three hours that took, we found 3 geo-caches on foot (all within a few blocks), Karl bought a pair of tennis shoes at Payless and I got some patriotic flip flops on sale for $4.99 (reg. 14.99), plus we got the Delta Independence read cover to cover in the car wash's nicely air conditioned waiting area.

The pickup finished, we finally got our chance to eat at Chang Thai Cuisine.  It was a bit pricey, but very good--- Tom Yum soup, Cashew Tofu, Jungle Curry, and fried bananas for dessert.

We ran out to grab some lawn chairs at WalMart. Since we decided to stay for the fresh air patriotic concert presented by the Montrose Community Band on Centennial Plaza in front of City Hall, comfort seemed a good plan.

We were glad we stayed in town for the concert; it was a great way to kick off our July 4th weekend!
During final selection, "Stars and Stripes Forever", audience was invited to get up and march, if so inspired.  40-50 adults, kids, people walking their dogs, parents and grandparents with infants/toddlers did just that!
