Never a big parade or fireworks person, the Viewpointe on Queen Anne is have a big party with BBQ, a band, and the best view in city of the Lake Union fireworks. This place is not your grandfather's old folk's home. Times have changed and so have facilities for your loved ones who you don't want to be alone, or who don't want to live by themselves, clean/care for a house, do the linens, and cook. All taken care of here, and assisted living is available for, well, people like me. OK, enjoy the 4th everyone, and don't we all, here in America, look at the 4th of July a little differently since 9-11?
We are Americans. We are flawed, but we work to be better. We finally have a racially diverse political administration. We have an African American president. We allow gay marriages in some states (flawed, but working on it). We have the Americans with Disabilities Act. We are fighters, deep in debt, but crawling out one dollar at a time. We come together more often than not, to pray as we wish, say what we wish, live as we wish. We are good people who look forward to our new chance to prove that fact to the world and to the neighbor next door.
Happy 4th of July!
