Who's going where for the 4th?
Kinda lands at an odd time this year with it being on a Tues, but I have a 4 day weekend so we are leaving the very questionable climate of western WA and heading to Wenatchee on the river. Grand Cooley dam does a laser light show on Sat night and the Bavarian town of Leavenworth is only 30 min away too.

We will be in South Lake Tahoe for the week. It has become our tradition. We try to arrive before the crowd and come home after it.

Nowhere with the RV. I prefer to go out when there are fewer people. Besides, that's always a good weekend at the local dirt track so I'll be headed to the races.

Cape Henlopen State Park in Delaware. It's the first year that they have ever had electric hook-ups.

Fort Custer State Park Battle Creek Mi. 29th through the 8th. Visit kids and past friends. Hot Air balloon festival with air show and festivities for the 4th. We lived there for many years before moving to Wisconsin.

We will be sitting front and center at the little Chetek, Wisconsin 4th of July parade. Events include a horse pull (these people are serious) a car show and a great water ski show. Small town America at the very best. We're staying at Six Lakes RV Park for a couple months before we climb onto the Harley and head to Labrador.

Are you up there already? Any storm damage in the campground? That area sure got pounded for a Wisconsin Tornado.
We will be in Sidie Hollow Campground, Viroqua WI. Nice peaceful small county campground that we can get loud rowdy and ******* stooooopid.

Yes, we've been in the area for three weeks. This particular campground only received peripheral damage, mainly limbs and such, but three or four of the local camps were all but wiped out. The tornado ended with a path 80 miles long; longest path in Wisconsin history.
I had to laugh when I read your description of your favorite camp and the activities. In the winter we reside in a very conservative RV park in south Florida. All is very, very quiet and the old farts like it that way. Brenda and I just go by the rules. Here in this area it is quiet as a mouse until Friday at about 4:00 and then the campfires get started, the kids gather in the middle of the place in the playground and the screaming and laughing begins. Most of the adults are having adult beverages and arguing about what dead beast to put on the grill. Campfires last until about 2 in the morning. Sundays at about 2:00 the noise dies down, trailers pull out, and Brenda and I and a few others are left in peace. I don't much like the peace, however. Kids squealing and friends making fun of the Vikings makes for a better time. Whether you're in Wisconsin, Iowa, Texas, California, BC, or wherever, doesn't this sound like America?

Not camping, but visiting my hometown and family back in Michigan. Monday and Tuesday are considered holidays at my work this year, so I can go for 9 days and only take 3 days vacation time.

Not going far. We may brave the bumper to bumper traffic and wander 100 miles up I-87 to Lake Champlain where our 5er spends much of the summer. But then we may stay home if there is any threat of bad weather and go to the town sponsored festivities which are always fun along with their big Alonzo Fireworks show.

You're gonna miss out on the biggest little parade in America in Mikana, WI. And you're so close to it!!

Oregon coast to Cannon Beach for the weekend but actually heading home to Western WA on the 4th to avoid the horrible traffic on the 5th [emoji57]. Staying at the KOA in Astoria as they seemed to be the only ones that had full hookups left by the time we made reservations
