A July birthday at the height of summer

July means long days and warm nights. The wheel offers a lake day with a pontoon boat rental, an all-American backyard cookout with fireworks, an ice cream sundae bar with lawn games and tubing down a lazy river. Spin to decide.

The birthstone for July is the ruby, and the flowers are the larkspur and the water lily. Red, white and blue or tropical colors both fit the month.

Beating the crowds

July birthdays are Cancer until about the 22nd and Leo after that. Around the 4th of July, venues are busy and guests may travel, so confirm the date early. Keep drinks cold, offer shade and check local rules about fireworks before planning anything with them.
