Happy 4th of July

Happy 4th of July - one day late. If you were to go to the links for other sites I have posted here you would get the history of the 4th of July or you would have the opportunity to reflect on what the holiday is meant to celebrate. I don't have the energy to be so creative. To celebrate we invited three families of our friends - I realized that with our family that made four - get it 4 - so that was the perfect number to celebrate the 4th of July. We spent the day just hanging around, snacking, playing, touring, giggling and enjoying one another. Since there were no "obligations" we spent the day realizing our Freedom to do what we choose. Hopefully that is enough of a tribute to the people who helped us earn our independence so many years ago. We had fun and enjoyed one another.

I typically don't spend the time to read blogs... but who can pass up an invite from Patti???

And, I'm certainly glad I checked it out. What a wonderful place. And, the music is so stirring.

Plus, the "my dog smells your dog" handle is an adventure of its own!

Cheers,
Wade
