    Watch the speech at Mt. Rushmore. It is more important this year than fireworks.

    Teach your children well.

    Save the money and stay safe.

    Jay was trained out, but someone was lighting a few off anyway. It was nice.
    80% chance of rain in Atmore tomorrow, so Windcreek probably will have to cancel too.
    Sad because this is probably the last year we will be able to have them.

    At least small town folks haven’t lost their minds and still plan to celebrate this country’s Independence Day.
