How We Spent the 4th of July

It was different sort of day for us, with just one trip to town. The noisy neighbors were unaccountably and fortunately gone. The weather was warm and breezy. We had bratwursts and veggies to cook for supper, with caramel butter pecan cream and carrot cake for desert. After dark we walked fifty yards down the road to watch the town fireworks, which seemed a bit tame compared to shows in years past. The spontaneous neighborhood blasts were considerably louder and a few skyrockets almost as colorful.

Enjoy your holidays whenever and how you can—we did!
