Go west, middle-thirties man!
The Buckethead Clan will be departing the DC area at an undetermined time this evening, heading toward an undisclosed location somewhere in Ohio. I am concealing this information from you and my wife for the eminently simple reason that I have no fricken clue. But sooner or later, probably later, we will load up the bucketmobile with fireworks, small children and dogs; and newly equipped with iPod, we will drive off into the sunset with (at last count) as much as 2.4 days worth of music to listen to.
This patriotic journey to the heartland to celebrate (two days late) the signing of the Declaration of Independence will leave me far, far from my computer. While I may have occasional access, I doubt I'll be feeling much like posting, seeing as we have relatives to visit, picnics and fireworks to attend, a wedding to go to, (and wedding gifts to buy) and who knows what else.
I hope everyone has a explosion and fire-filled Independence Day, consumes vast quantities of cheap hot dogs and cheaper beer, and takes at least a minute to reflect on the liberty we enjoy.

I'll wave northward as I'm landing in Cinci-tucky on Sunday morning for a short trip to the old home state. Enjoy your trip.
DC is your dwelling place and
DC is your dwelling place and Ohio's your destination...hokay, I'm a shut-up now.
Have a good time back here in the Heart of It All. I'll be doing considerable reflecting, eating, drinking, blowing up of things, and flying my spanking new Culpeper Minute Men flag. Happy Independence Day, bruddah.
So far I've had a great time.
So far I've had a great time. Got to see a band I used to know back in my earlier life as a Columbus slacker. Hung out with family. Saw Mr. and Mrs. Smith, which I thought was excellent.
However, I must say I am disappointed with the wussification of my home state. The only fireworks that are legal are smoke bombs and snap-its. You can't even buy blackcats. And, as an added bonus, the City of Columbus passed a city-wide smoking band. I figured the left and right coasts would follow the path of darkness, but not Ohio. And surely not the heart of the heart of it all, Columbus.
One unexpercted side benefit, though, was that I could see the back of Larry's Bar, Grill and Seminar from the front door for the first time ever.
