Do you remember what you did on the 4th of July?


Well, we went to Connie and Duane's in Alabama and put out a nice fireworks show.  Must be good, because the neighbors sat on their back porch and watched it! We did it in the big backyard.
But before the fireworks...
Duane, Debbie, Melba and Ms. Price (Mama)
...we visited with family,
That's a nice pic of Ricky! Keep smiling, Buddy!
happy family with smiling face,
They were not alone, everyone played on the smartphones at one point or the other
busy family,
Jeremy and Meredith, nice couple!, and nice people
 yeah, that's better, and that will make loving family.
Of course, we played Rook! and Settlers of Catan.
Melba, Debbie, and Connie
The nice ladies prepared good food,
then we played more Rook, had beer, wine, Diet Mountain Dew, water...grilled outside, shared a lot of stories...
...then we had the fireworks the night of the 4th!

We had all shapes, colors, and sizes of fireworks. (Duane and I set out the fireworks; was fun!)
The next morning...
...there was a red line in the sky of Alabama.  And the clouds changed color.  I guess we were not the only one setting out fireworks.  It's a good thing the 4th of July only comes once a year.

So, how was your 4th?

Sounds like you and Deb had a nice holiday. Catherine and I hosted my best friends from Massachusetts and took the to the Jarrell Plantation and the Whistle Stop for lunch. It was their first time to Georgia, and now they understand why we love living here.

Thanks, Doug.
The Whistle Stop is a great place to take visitors. Maybe they've seen the movie "Fried Green Tomatoes".

Sounds like you had a great 4th too!
