Happy Fourth of July
Happy Fourth of July everyone. Happy 250th birthday America.
Today was very exciting because it was America's 250th birthday. Our neighbor behind us celebrated the 4th by having a pool party. Other neighbors had a lot of fireworks. They started them about 8:30 pm and went on until 10:30 pm. We just stayed at home.
The morning temperature was 75 degrees and the high was 99 degrees. It was hot so we just hung a round the house.
The at our house at 5:00 99 degrees
We did leave the house in the morning for a little bit before it got too hot. We took the Minnie out for a ride. Larry tries to take it for a ride now and then to make sure the generator and the Minnie runs correctly. Larry drove the Minnie a few miles with the generator running. The generator started right up. The Minnie and the generator ran excellent.
On the way home we stopped by Walmart to pick up a few things for our July 4th celebration. We hadn't had hot dogs in years and they sounded good perfect for the 4th of July. We also got buns to go with them along with a couple of desserts. We bought a piece of carrot cake and tow pieces of turtle pie cheese cake. The cheese cake says it should thaw in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours before eating it so that will be for tomorrow. We also picked up wedge potatoes to go with the hot dogs. We were very surprised that Walmart wasn't busy. Maybe because it was 9:00 am.
In the afternoon Larry started to read a book. I played games.
I did the Daily Challenges of Solitaire and Mahjong. The event was Event: Klondike Adventure of 20 games. It took me 1 hour, 5 minutes and 47 seconds to complete, which put me in 5th place in my group. I played Angry Birds Friends and Angry Birds 2.
I worked out with the Wii Fit for 45 minutes. I did two exercised off the Aerobics menu for 10 minutes, which were Basic Run Long Distance for 2 minutes and Rhythm Boxing for 8 minutes. I did three games off the Balance Games menu for 10 minutes, which were Penguin Slide two times for 4 minutes, Table Tilt for 4 minutes and Tightrope Walk two times for 2 minutes. I did four exercises off the Strength Training menu for 10 minutes, which were Sideways Leg Lift 20 reps for 2 minutes, Single-Leg Twist 20 reps for 2 minutes, Single-Leg Extension of 20 reps for 3 minutes and Torso Twist 6 reps for 3 minutes. I did two games off the Training Plus menu for 3 minutes, which were Balance Bubble two times for 2 minutes and Perfect 10 three times for 3 minutes. I did five exercises off the Yoga menu for 10 minutes, which were Chair for 2 minutes, Half Moon for 2 minutes, Palm Tree for 2 minutes, Tree for 2 minutes and Warrior for 2 minutes. I had a great workout.
I worked out with the Synth Riders with four songs twice, which were Keep On Smilin, Keep You In Line, Silent Movie and Watch Your Tongue. While doing Keep You In Line I earned one new high score. When doing Silent Movie I earned one outstanding score. When doing Watch Your Tongue I earned two outstanding score. I did very well.
I played eight pinball games. I played four games on the mini cabinet, which were Attack From Mars, Dark Chaos, Jaws and Michael. While playing Jaws I became high score #2 and Michael I became high score #3. I played four games on the big cabinet, which were Big Trouble In Little China, Blizzard of Ozz, Game of Thrones and Star Fox. While playing Game of Thrones I didn't get a new high score for the weekly challenge but I did become high score #4. While playing Star Fox I became high score #3. I had fun playing pinball.
We watched YouTube videos.
In the evening we watched Project Hail Mary from our movies collection. After Larry went to bed I watched Armageddon from our movies collection. I ended up doing 4,500 steps.
