We are up and making ready to go celebrate the 4th with Wayne's parents. It won't be the explosive and exciting event that we use to enjoy back at our old home place. There would be days of preparing and wondering who was gonna attend our July 4th bash. We were under no restrictions there, so we had free reign to have quite an awesome fire works show. Wayne being somewhat of a pyromaniac and our son Dan, following oh so close in his fathers footsteps, would usually be the lighters of the loud and colorful explosions in the nights sky. We would oooohh and aaahhhhh with each burst of color. It wasn't just the fireworks, but the gathering of family and friends laughing and clapping enjoying being together. The older crowd getting another taste of being excited and entertained with youthful antics. I do miss those times.....there is a lot to be said for living in the country and under no guidelines for the snooty to enforce on you. I would wish for all my grandsons to have the fun and closeness we had with their parents on the most anticipated 4TH OF JULY. We're off to cook hamburgers outside and catch up on some visit time. To all a SAFE and HAPPY 4TH. Till next time.
