Independence Day

Happy 4th of July everyone !  

Our day was filled with family, friends, food,fireworks and FUN!  Mikayla  made a fresh key lime pie to take. We arrived at Denny & Barbs house around 12:30.  They graciously hosted a feast with BBQ ribs hot dogs,burgers and all the fixins! We ate till we could no more.

After the feast the guys got comfy on the sofa and took a snooze while Mikayla, Barbara, and Debbie played a game of Scrabble.  Barb won and Mikayla came in second with Debbie tailing the end .  Chewy had fun playing with Gridly and Zoe.  We said our goodbyes to Denny & Barb then met up with  Dale & Pam for a bite and a beer at Hans & Frans.  We stopped by their beautiful home  decorated with some of  Dales amazing photography then all of us headed downtown Greenville for the fireworks!  Amazing show! Chewbaca came with us and we held him up like a kid so he could see the fireworks.  It was amazing how he watched the whole show, so curious about all those beautiful colors and booms in the sky, and not once did he flinch or bark.  After the fireworks we strolled down along the riverside of Greenville and walked on the foot bridge that's cantilevered over the waterfalls.  Such a beautiful place.  It was late and it was a long drive back to camp.  We were all really exhausted and so delirious that we got silly and laughed till our faces hurt!  I guess you had to be there to appreciate it!

It was a full fun day and tomorrow we were getting up early to head to next stop in VA.
