I'll be heading to Birmingham, AL. If my time-off request is approved, I'll leave Friday afternoon and return Tuesday afternoon.

For now, I'll probably stay home. MAYBE cruise to Texarkana and do some preliminary work for the road meet.

I'm just gonna stay home, grill with my dad, and light fireworks. Here in San Angelo I think the worst traffic is on the 4th, the city does fireworks at Lake Nasworthy (Nasty water), then at Goodfellow AFB they do a fireworks show, then they have them at the Colts Stadium (Foster Field). So there's a lot of shows here. I'll prolly just go out to the dam and see them... Oh yeah and on the 3rd there's the POPs concert...

blitz trip to sunny Union County.  1050 miles each way, and I intend to make each leg in about 18 hours.

I'm out of this F***KING PLACE!

Probably just head downtown (Baltimore) after a nice cookout at home and watch the fireworks. If I'm home by then....
Call me Kenny/Kenneth. No, seriously.

I'm whoring myself out to my old work at a hotel with marina, who is going to be shorthanded and I'll be in town so they've asked me if I'll help out with tying up rich people's boats and things like that, so I'm poised to make a few hundred bucks in tax-free tips off of the 4th (hopefully enough to fully pay for a northeast Wyoming/North Dakota/South Dakota/eastern Montana trip I want to take over Labor Day to finally finish the Wyoming highway system in its entirety and visit North Dakota for the first time)

I plan to travel from my desk chair to the kitchen, with a possible side trip to the TV. All in all, probably about a hundred feet. :D

(Yeah, the 4th is quite lame when you are unemployed. :D)
This is cu2010, reminding you, help control the ugly sign population, don't have your shields spayed or neutered.

The one band I'm in has a gig in Ohiopyle (PA) on Saturday (The 3rd)... so nothing TOO far away from home.
I don't have opinions anymore. All I know is that no one is better than anyone else, and everyone is the best at everything

2 and a half weeks in Europe!  Usually I'm in Cape May, NJ for the 4th, but we're going in August instead.

I-99... the Glen Quagmire of interstate routes??

Party's at our house. So I'm going nowhere.
If you always take the same road, you will never see anything new.

I'm planning on taking a trip to New Mexico and clinch the last part of I-25 I have left (between Springer & Raton) and get some counties in northwest New Mexico.

if you take 64/87 you are very likely to pass by me!

The fourth of July falls on a day that ends in 'y' this year, so I'll be at work.

My thinking is maybe Asbury Park and such

I'll be travelling to Northern Virginia on 5 July and will visit Richmond, Washington and Baltimore until 9 July as a College Road Trip.  Hopefully, I'll be able to avoid all of the post 4 July traffic.

I took 64/87 on Memorial Day, thus, I won't be taking it on this trip. I'll be on 64 from 285 to Raton, though.

then you've been to sunny Union County more recently than I have!
