Delray Daze, Delray Beach, July 5, 2011
[dcs_p]Big festival this weekend, and we had a houseful. Angie’s sisters came in from Tampa with their families, and every room in the house was filled. Fireworks Monday night over the beach — awesome. Because of last year’s oil spill in the gulf there wasn’t a barge available and the show almost didn’t happen. The city was about forty grand short, and everybody in the business community chipped in, including me. But what a turnout. Our little seaside village of Delray Beach was packed. Victor did ribs and chicken and grilled mahi-mahi and barbecued shrimp, and we ate and drank like kings. Everybody was happy, even Stella.
