Happy Independence Day
Happy Independence Day weekend, everybody!
How many of you are headed to the City’s celebration at Oak Lake today? (Remember, it’s today, not tomorrow!) Our Independence Day festivities have always been of the around-the-house type, so we will pass. One of these years, perhaps.
Now that I think about it, ten years ago was my last year running fireworks tents. I had some great times doing that, but boy I don’t miss the stress. To those of you running fireworks tents this year: good luck. It should be a great year for fireworks tents thanks to the Friday/Saturday combo. On the other hand, In These Economic Times™ who knows how much money people will want to set fire to. The Wilsons will probably go for some Snap Pops, a couple parachutes, and a few small fountains. Just enough to briefly entertain the kids.
Whatever your plans this weekend, please celebrate responsibly. Just as important: as I tell folks every year, please remember the reason for the season.
