4th of July

I know its a little late but I've been busy and tired... yes, I work 6 days a week in the 105 degree heat and I'm tired... happy, but tired.

I spent the 4th in the small town of Delta. What do you do in Delta on the 4th? This...

Go to the Delta Demolition Derby!

When we got to the Derby all the seats were taken. As a result we had to stand in the "splash zone" right up in the action.

After about 2 hours some of the seats cleared up and we got to sit in the stands. Here is the crew watching all the action!

Towards the end it started to rain... did we leave?! No way!

After about 4 hours of derby-ing we had a break and watched an awesome firework show.

Overall it was a great 4th! I love my country!

Happy 100th!

My friend did this for her 100th post and I thought it was a great idea. Enjoy!
