1994 4th Of July Special

The last family get together in Kerhonksen

Just one of those times when I happen to have access to aunt Grace and uncle Joe's camera, so I decided to document the entire 4th of July weekend trip in 1994.

It would turn out to be the last time we spent the weekend together by Grandpa's house and finish it off with a barbecue at on the Cristiano's side of the lawn.

Each segment chronicles a portion of the trip from beginning to end. Watch at your own risk, can be very boring, or nostalgic, depends on how you look at it.

Disclaimer: I can not be held responsible for any view I might have voiced on this documentary. I spoke a lot, and often, but I was 19 and 1/2 a moron, so sorry in advance if I say anything out of line!

Part 1: Going To Work, Walking The Streets Of Brooklyn

So you don't bore yourself, or waste your time, if you're not interested,this is my trip to work at the pharmacy and walking back home to leave for Joey's house to head upstate.

Part 2: In The Dark In Kerhonksen

Made it upstate, and we needed to wait for Owen to put the power on. Joey is pissed, and this is me Sal, Anna, Joey Linda, Vito, Chris, and Phil discussing the blackout events.

We're all pitching in to clean up the grounds in preparation of the night time festivities, which featured Doc West! Yeeeaaahhhhh!!!!
