I'm sure that Fairfield is celebrating it's annual "Mayberry" style 4th of July just as this town is. Usually Saturdays I head down to the waterfront park for a walk but they've got all kinds of foo-foo going on and I wouldn't have even been able to get to the park let along park there. It began with a pancake breakfast then a parade at 10 through the downtown. So no Starbucks for me today.
I was musing to a friend about why it's celebrated this way. The town demographic is thirty something with kids but the organizers of events are old farts. I imagine if the millennials organized the celebration would be a rock concert with $1 admission and nude body painting with selfies gallery. :-D On a side note there is a new espresso bar opening around the corner from Starbucks this week. Hopefully prices will be good and they use a good roast.
