I love the Fourth of July. It's my all-time favorite holiday, next to Christmas, of course. I was glad I had the day off today to actually enjoy the festivities in town. Sonoma had it's annual "Down-home Parade". (Yes, they actually do call it that.) I'm not a huge fan of parades, in general, because I think they're stupid and useless. However, I will go to a parade if there is food at the end of it. I mean, I'm not a fan of standing for hours when it's already getting hot in the shade. It's nice to be able to see what's going on in town, all the people wearing red, white and blue, the classic cars, and marching bands. Plus, it's nice to be rewarded with a 1/4 lb. hot dog and beer after the whole thing. 
(A cake from Whole Foods made of raspberries and blueberries . . . mmm.)
