It’s like a beauty pageant celebrating the patriots that make our country beautiful. One of my favorite island traditions is the golf cart parade. Everyone either rides in their golf carts, decorated with Fourth of July-themed decorations, or they find a spot along the route to watch. A unique aspect of the parade is that whether you're a participant or a spectator, you can enjoy getting drenched with hoses and water guns. Even though it’s hot, you can cool off while spraying down your friends. After the parade ends, a great way to continue the fun is with a water gun fight. It’s so fun to just spend time running around outside and enjoying the warm summer day. Since it’s so hot out, it’s a great day for water activities like water skiing, tubing, surfing, going to the beach or swimming off a dock in the Intracoastal. I love spending time with friends, family and neighbors on the Fourth of July while eating hamburgers and hot dogs and soaking up the sun. Midway through the day, there is the patriotic tradition of a military aircraft flyover that you can see from the beach. You definitely can’t forget about the grand finale of every Independence Day, the fireworks. There are plenty of places to watch the fireworks display, like the beach, a dock or a boat where you can enjoy the beautiful water too. Photo Provided.
