I told you about the Fourth of July, but here’s a picture, to really bring it home. Unfortunately, this is the second-best picture of the event. The best one—where Laudina is giving this hilarious, quizzical look at me—is too blurry. So you get No. 2. By this point, she’d grown weary of the national anthem and was quite ready to be done, I do believe. But, being the real friend she is, she stuck it out, for our sake.
