Sunday July 5th~

Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It
 turns what we have into enough, and more...


 Yesterday could not have been any better, even if I
 had planned it.  My day began with an early trip to my
 favorite Cuban bakery for coffee and a few goodies 
for mom and dad. I invited them over for dinner.


On my way back home I stopped by Legacy, and
 she was there.  On my way downtown later that 
evening she was also there.  Yesterday I saw her 
twice and yes, she had foodies twice.  She also 
had a good July 4th.  I was so happy for that.


I went downtown with the the thought of just 
getting some ice-cream, but on my way back I 
could not resist a little pit stop at Ford's Garage.  
Best spot to just watch people do their thing.


The highlight of the day were the amazing
 display of fireworks.  Best part is that Sniff and 
I watched them from the comfort of our own
 bedroom.  It was a spectacular show.


My Iphone did not do justice to what was really
 going on, but I still managed to get some great pictures
 and a ton of videos. 250 years only comes once 😂


Here downtown Fort Myers the celebration 
featured a drone finale to celebrate America's 250th 
birthday. It went on and on.  My phone sure was 
HOT!  Sniff stayed by my side the entire time.


I was captivated by the firework show.  Usually
 I am not that interested, but last night was different.  
It was just  a spectacular display of pure beauty.


To all a very good day. I am lucky to be an 
American and to live in this beautiful country. 
 Something I never take for granted 💖🤍💙
The view from our bedroom.  Best spot.


Strive to find things to be thankful for, 
and just look for the good in who you are...
