Happy (Late) 4th

Hello friends! Ash and I hope you all had a super fun fireworks day! Our library was closed on the 4th and I just had this feeling that I should have done a scheduled postie so it would come on time. Three days later and here I am posting. Oh well who cares? At least I got it done (better late than never!). We had a good time on the 4th. We didn't do any fireworks at home because a) they freak the dog out and b) yes, this sounds boring, but I'm just not that into setting off my own fireworks anymore. We wanted to do something, though so we thought about going to the parade downtown that happens every year. It didn't work out as well as we had thought because I'm prone to sleeping in. So we went a different route and decided to go to this little festival/ carnival in a little town called Bethany about a half hour from us. Addmission was free (bonus!) but the rides were not. They were still fun though! And we felt kind of historic because on the way there we went through part of Route 66 which I think is pretty cool. At night they had these beautiful fireworks and we all sat on the grass and watched them go crazy in the sky. We had an awesome time! I don't have any pictures because we didn't bring our camera (who would've thought we'd forget that very important piece of information?).  Ash and I missed out and the event at the Tabby Cat Club but Gracie sent us the graphic and we thought we'd show off this beautiful flyer. For those of you who did make it we hope you had an awesome time!

  4. Sam has become terrified of thunder but thankfully he didn't pay attention to the fireworks because folks throw them in the street here. Never see them, just hear them.

  5. It's nice hearing from you and Ash! We cats are sort of indifferent about the fireworks here, not freaked out and not at all into them, and my human was not feeling well, so we had a quiet, boring holiday.

  20. Thank you for wishing us a happy Fourth of July, even if it was just a little bit past the day. There are always a lot of fun options that are available on the Fourth. It is too bad that there are no photos of the fireworks but I am sure that they were great.
