Fly the American Flag every day, not just on holidays. We do!! The 4th of July brings back such sweet memories. When I was a kid, my parents, brother and sister walked across the street to my Grandmother and Aunt's home. They always had a cookout on the 4th. The best part of the outing? Making homemade ice cream. Always pineapple. Such fun. The best 4th? 1972, when we lived in Springfield, Pa. and the boys and Al belonged to Indian Guides. An "Old Fashioned Trolley" was built in our driveway. The riders on the trolley were Indian Guide boys and their sisters. As I recall, the trolley won several prizes. Now, 34 years later, we will attend a 4th celebration with a cookout here at Shell Point. The usual menu, dogs, burgers, beans, etc. Whether you are in the North or the South, I hope the rain does not dampen your day or ours. Have a Happy and Safe 4th everyone. Barb
