HAPPY 4TH OF JULY TO ALL!

Every year on this day, my husband and I attend the Greenback, TN, July 4th parade.  I have a You Tube video of it on my You Tube channel under "Laurakim1"  - if you're interested in seeing it.  This parade is truly old tyme Americana.  The farmers ride their tractors, the kids decorate their bicycles or their 4-wheelers, the antique and classic car collectors decorate their cars, and the police and fire trucks turn on their lights and sirens.  Also, the horses and riders come decked out too.  And everyone throws candy out to the little kids lining the streets.  This year our 6 year old grandson was one of them, and he came away with quite a haul.  The whole town lines up along Main St., and everyone knows everyone.  It's a great little parade, no bands, few floats, but a lot of fun.  And did I mention, it was over 95 degrees!  After that we all went out for lunch, and now I'm going to lay down and take a nap and hope that it rains.  Have a good one!
