The Fourth Again

My fondest childhood memory of July Fourth is writing my name in the dark night with sparklers. That and Mr.Paule setting fire to his roof with Roman candles.

Husband set off a few bottle rockets, then went to bed early. He was sleepy, and besides, it's not as much fun without a gaggle of excited kids as an audience. Sigh.
