A day off work? CHECK!
Family in town for a visit? CHECK!
Great food? CHECK!
Fireworks for the kids? CHECK!
Cooler temps and rain? CHECK!
Oh yeah, it's gonna be a great day! With the rain last night and this morning, there's a smaller chance of some hoodlum setting a field or house or barn on fire. I somehow made it through work yesterday , although I must admit it was hard to accomplish anything. I'm ready to head to mom's as soon as I can get this family up and moving, but so far there are only 3/5 of us awake...at 8:00!
The dog is scared shitless of the fireworks...literally. This is our first 4th of July with him, and every time we take him outside, something booms and he cowers against our legs. Poor sap. He's gonna explode soon if he doesn't go. LOL
Well, time to get this day started. Be careful out there. I don't know about the rest of the country, but in Missouri this is a day that folks mix large amounts of alcohol with explosives and flame. Yup, that could get dangerous. Watch your back, roll up the windows on any vehicle that's parked outside, and close the doors on the barn, for heavens sake!

have a great 4th.
Sure hope you enjoyed the birthday of this once-proud country. (I just can't help my Liberal self, can I?) :)
Love,
Russ
