Of course if it's the Fourth of July then it must mean a cookout with my family. While last year it was a delicious pig roast this year went more with an ocean theme. Steamers and a lobster bake (lobsters, kielbasa, potatoes, corn) all cooked over hot rocks under a blanket of seaweed and wet burlap. Everything was incredible and my lobster was quite a monster. The lobster cracker proved no match for the massive claw that took prodding with a hammer to yield it's meat.
It was also nice to be outside. It was not a particularly hot day but the sun was shining and it was nice to quite to relax and catch up with family. After working non stop and getting ready for travel, I needed a break. Of course being the 4th of July in addition to good food there also were amazing fireworks. All in all a great day!
