Fourth of July Festivities...
The Fourth of July is always a fun holiday for us. We had our second annual pancake breakfast with friends who gather at our house to watch the parade pass around the corner! I was half asleep and didn't take any photos!
After cakes in the cul-de-sac... we caravan on our golf carts to the corner where we watch a "Hometown Parade" with the perfect blend of Patriotism, local advertising, free samples and coupons, and cheese factor!
After the parade there is some down time before we have friends over again for a little cook out. I was BUSY fighting the
brigade of flying critters to take any photos of that gathering as well! Then after we have our fill of burgers, dogs, steamed corn on the cob, fresh fruit, and Angie's amazing fruit pie... we caravan on our carts around another corner to the lake to watch fireworks! This year we had the amazing and much appreciated gift of a gentle breeze! It was great and the fireworks were spectacular over the lake!

It makes me very sad for SO MANY who are in foreign lands fighting wars right now. My heart goes out to them and their families as they sacrifice so much for this country and what she stands for... I pray for their safety and that they all return home soon... and I say "Thank You".
