So last year I didn't go out on the 4th of July as I was still recovering from having Shingles and it was blazing hot last summer.
This year, it rained in the morning but cleared off by midday. So we walked up to the park to take in the booths & music.
One of the bands that played - They were a "bluesy" type of band. Not bad but not my style of music. I went to high school with the guy in the blue hat in front.
We had a barbecue and fixings at the house. Invited my niece and her husband to join us. - We ran into them at the park and they didn't have anything planned for dinner. It was fun having them join us.
Coleen took this shot of Grandma (that's me) and little Joelle watching a sparkler.
One of ours, we shot off some. Didn't go out to the local community fireworks (I wanted too but no one else did).
Had a pretty nice day all in all.
Sounds like a good day. I didn't go anywhere and didn't even go out on my deck to watch the local fireworks.

ReplyDeleteLooks like fun! Wonder where the neighbors got those fancy fireworks?
ReplyDeleteThat was nice to see the Pioneer Park grandstand!
ReplyDeleteThat looks All-American!! I love the place the band played. We went to our local parade in the morning and to a movie at night. Very quiet. That photo of you and Joelle is adorable!
ReplyDeleteLooks like fun! How great that the rain stopped and you had a lovely day to enjoy.
ReplyDeleteIda - sorry for the delay in commenting - busy summer, you know?! We were very fortunate to spend the Fourth with our son in Idaho Falls, and the massive fireworks show was within walking distance of his apartment! Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
