July 4th --- a few reminders

Okay, who sped up the clocks ..how did we get this far into the summer?

As we close in on the July 4th holiday -and you're probably getting the 'I'm out of the office until July 5-6-7" response from at least half the people you email ... just a moment to review holiday safety -

1- leave the fireworks to the pros- they're not safe in the hands of novices and besides, they're illegal
2- keep the cold stuff cold and when it doubt - throw it out - no eating sandwiches that have been out all day just to avoid waste
3-sunscreen - lots of it and reapply every couple of hours and after you swim. Waterproof - not really
4-alcohol and any motorized equipment doesn't mix
5-if you think thunderstorms are bearing down, get out of the water and away from electrical equipment
6-laugh early, laugh often and have a great holiday weekend!!
