I know some of you spent time together, and had a great time. I've heard some of the details, and must say, "I'm Jealous".
All I did for the 4th was go out with Family. My Son & Daughter-in-law, Grand-daughter, and 2 of G-Daughters Friends. I don't know if you've heard of it or not, but there is a place in the Tampa area, that's called 'Ybor City'. It's quite a place for night-life. My Grand-daughter, (20 yrs old) is working with a production company that is doing a Documentary on Gay & Lesbian Hot Spots. Their intention is to Film the Best they can find from here to Chicago. Before filming, they check them out to see if they are the type places that would be interesting. They go twice a week to different places. My 6'4", 270 lb Son goes with them as 'Body Guard'. This week, I was invited as was my DIL. We had the VIP section, Our wait-person (a female impersonate)was very attentive. She/he invited my DIL and me to come down and spend the day doing each others hair and make-up. I think maybe we appeared a little 'Plain'. The entertainment was Female impersonator's and male dancers. Waiting for the show, someone waved at me, a local man who recognized me. My G-Daughter said "Who else but Granny would be recognized in a gay bar on her first visit"....LOL My DIL and I were sitting quietly watching all the men kissing each other, among other things. When a couple of the Guys locked-up on a sofa on the floor level right beside her chair. They were 'humping' each others leg, and kissing non-stop. She didn't notice at first, but when she did, she jumped up ran over to my Son's side, and said "I'm ready to go"....I laughed at her so hard I almost wet myself. I finally calmed her down, but she wouldn't sit next to the rail again. One of the cross dressers was at least 60, skinny, wearing a red white and blue 'Flag',Bikini. After dancing for awhile, he came over and gyrated his sweaty body in my Sons lap. Guess that was supposed to be a lap dance. I put a dollar in his fish-nets, then he came over and did one for me. I bounced him up and down like I used to do the children when we played "Ride a little Horsey down to town"...I just didn't drop him...LOL The place was mostly Gay Men, but there were some straight couples as well as some Lesbian couples. When the noise, lights and music got more than we could stand, my DIL and I went outside and sat on a bench, only to discover that WE WERE one of the attractions. People were driving slowly down the street 'Gaping at the 'Gay people'... Being the trooper that I am, and trying to get my DIL to lighten-up, I put my arm around her, pulled her head down on my shoulder and gave her some kisses on top of her head... Looked over at the car next to us and said "Stop looking at my BITCH" The Production crew decided that wasn't a place they wanted to film....Thank God... 4th of July Fun in the good old USA....

I can visualize you doing this!  Gawd I wish I would have been there with all you. With Shay, msturtlebug, and agedverywell, and you and I wouldn't we have a great time!!
When I lived in Oakland, California we used to go to Finocchio's in San Francisco and watch the Female Impersonaters. What fun that was. The final number one time had the "cast" dressed in the most gorgeous gowns. All were made out of crepe paper. You would not have realized it if they didn't move...you could hear the paper crinkle.

Gay bars are a Hoot, as a mother of a gay son, have visited a couple of them. Also a charity dinner in San Fran. where they had a line up of men dressed as women and a few women sprinkled in the mix. We were given a pad and pen to guess which was which. The person with the most correct amount won a $250 prize. Needless to say I didn't win anything. He always introduced as "This is my mom and she is straight". I was never hit on, but looking back maybe that wasn't the reason.LOL!!!
