A quick word on Michelle’s Fourth of July rules. She doesn’t ask for much, so when she does, you better listen.

1. The Fourth will be an all-day beach extravaganza
2. Patriotic playlists only
3. Cheetos or Cheese Balls are encouraged
4. Dinner will be cooked on the grill, with cheese
5. Classic S’mores only, get your fancy pant treats off the beach

I think we adhered to them all yesterday in a picture perfect day that made any traffic hassles a distant memory.
