Happy July 4th To All!
Just wanted to stop in and wish everyone a happy July 4th. It feels so good to know that across this country everyone is celebrating this special day. Makes you feel like you are a part of one big happy family. I stopped writing long enough to spend a little time with my family. We fired up the grill and had beef shis kebobs with chunks of onion and zuchinni, mushrooms and carrots. Added a fresh green salad and had watermelon for desert. Afterwards we all went down to the lake in the center of town to watch the fireworks display. It’s so awesome to watch the reflection of the fireworks on the waters surface–like a black mirror with color exploding inside it. I’ve never missed a July 4th at the lake, no matter where I lived at the time. Don’t plan on ever missing one. It’s a memory I’ll always keep close. Just like the ones I’m making with my children now. There’s nothing like the excitement of a child when they watch those colors bursting in the sky. Hope all of you made a memory today. Happy writing and reading to all.
Wishing you all…..Sultry Southern Nights.
Tess
