What A Weekend!



We had a wonderful weekend with family and friends...
It included good food, fun swimming in the lake and paddling on the lake in kayaks...

...and of course I was able to get to a few rummage and yard sales...
Here are a few patriotic red white and blue finds!





A Hotel silver teapot, a silver plate bowl and ...



a lovely silver pitcher...







We were all decked out in our patriotic colors for the annual parade and fireworks.
Up here in this tiny Adirondack town, our Fourth of July parade is a big deal.
Not only do we have the customary homemade floats, junior high school band and kazoo band, the Veterans, the fire engines and ambulance, horses and dogs, clowns and unicyclist ....
...our town proudly rolls out all the snow removal equipment and the snowmobile brigade...
Candy is tossed out to all the children and there is much excitement and good cheer.
This year the weather was perfect for all activities!
We are so blessed!

I hope your weekend was safe and happy and full of fun with friends and family too!
