4th of July!

4th of July at the Castles!
You’re welcome to arrive anytime after 12 noon. What to bring is highlighted below...

During the day we plan on:

Swimming/wading/floating in the river (bring swim gear/shoes for wading and a towel)

Playing yard games (please bring if you have them!)

Hiking/walking around the wilderness


In the evening we will have

BBQ- we’ll start the grill around 6pm.

Bring your own meat (or non-meat grilling substitute) AND a side dish or dessert to share.

We have some buns (hamburger/hotdog) and we’ll have lemonade/limeade and water available.

Drive-in style movie in our backyard (we don’t have a specific film choice, so please bring your dvds and we’ll take a vote! If no one brings any we might get stuck with one of my chick flicks…)

Bring-

Warm Clothes. Even if it’s 90 on Friday, the coast breeze kicks in around 8pm and it gets downright chilly.

Movie snacks

Chair, blanket and/or sleeping bag to cozy up under.


If you are interesting in spending the night, you are more than welcome! It makes the drive more worthwhile.

PLEASE RSVP to tell me you are planning on staying so we can prep mattresses and have enough for breakfast.

If you are spending the night, please bring:

Pillows/sleeping bags. We have enough mattresses for 5 couples, plus 3 couches, and a pretty comfy floor.

You are welcome to bring a tent and camp out here too, if you like.

Please don’t bring fireworks – we have very tall, drying grass all around our home. Sorry!

Call Melody for directions or if you have questions! 929-4870
