Independence Day and Concord's 150th anniversary

I had a full day planned and there was more available I could have done that I did not do. Here's what my 4th of July looked like:

Put Old Glory out and hung the flag banner to turn on at dark. Prayed.
7:45 a.m. to 9:00 went to neighbors to cheer on 5K runners and was invited to a delicious breakfast buffet. I had to run home for my red winter parka!
9:00 left for my second breakfast at the ward and sat with STEM and family.
10:00 arrived at parade in time to stand for our National Anthem.
Noon attended 150th anniversary celebration for Concord founder Don Salvio Pacheco and dedication of statue. I had a tee shirt I gave the artist and she accepted with thanks.
1:00 to 2:00 ice cream social at Galindo House and Historical Society Museum seeing the Lopezes and Walkers. Live singer and a lovely event on the lawn.
2:30 to 3:00 laps at the pool.
4:00 to 7:00 Twilight Zone binge.
Ate some food at home and juiced for Thursday.
Got an invite for dessert and visit from neighbor and to watch fireworks in their yard.
8:00 Started A Capitol Fourth on PBS.
8:30 to 10:00 at neighbors for a lovely visit and fireworks set off at Mt Diablo H.S.
10:00 Watched the rest of A Capitol Fourth.
Prayed.
