Fourth Prepares To Explode

Maybe it doesn't have chimeras, but it sparkles in multi-dimensional excitements beyond what might be dreamed -- races, talent-driven or otherwise on land and sea, prized pets and beauty queens parading for plaudits, zillions of yard sale treasures beckoning, horseshoe and smooch contests, Lubec Idol and Minute To Win It challenges, ground lit luminaria vying with skies rainbowed in fireworks -- Lubec's wondrous Independence Day phantasmagoria stretches from Wednesday to Sunday, July 4 to 8, with ultra-dazzling cash awards and ribbons galore. Even the shy will bloom around the roaring bonfire amid the marshmallow roasters.
Endless hours of thought and toil by the intrepid July 4th Committee led by Tamilee Profit made it come to pass to please the populace and grandly salute the country and its neighbors. The public can wave a flag, bring a camera, sing, dance, laugh, feast and frolic.
Memorable it will surely be.
