July 4th was spent in such a variety of ways! We first drove to a nearby community about half an hour away and met my husband's brother at a city park, watched a small town parade which was pretty cute, then wandered around, eating lunch, meeting a couple of friends, viewing old cars...my favorite? A 1947 Chevy truck. We came home for awhile, then met friends downtown for the 4th of July parade at 5 pm...enjoyed that, then walked a few blocks to a Chinese Restaurant that my family enjoyed several times a year when I was growing up. It was great, and the waitress was from *Guangzhou, Chi*na and we had a fun visit, since I had been there a few years ago. Then we continued walking to a park near a lake and enjoyed listening to music, watching a sack race, tug-of-war, and a pie-eating contest. We then drove to a parking lot, brought out the lawn chairs and wine (and a blanket or jacket!), and watched some spectacular fireworks! All in all, a very good day!
