4th of July

4th of July has been a big celebrating holiday in my family for many years. When I was younger the celebration lasted the entire weekend with various activities and plenty of yummy food to eat.

This year the Plessinger's came to a picnic at my mother's house. It was pretty low key this year, a bar-b q and visiting.

The men around the bar-b q.

Talking about farming.
Meeting some extended family.
The teenagers.
And the spread.

The evening ended with Parker and I going to fireworks and meeting up with an old friend. We went to Delgrosso's to see the show. We had to walk quite a way to get to a good spot. Parker wanted to be where the action was. We had excellent seats. We sat on the sidewalk at the traffic light.
