When, in the course of human events...


I love, Love, Love the fourth of July! I have so many great memories associated with this holiday. The little town I grew up in put on a great time each year with fireworks, parade, food booths, horse races, even a fly over by some jets, it was great! Then of course we had our own fun at home, swimming in the canal or river, picnics, barbecues and fireworks (which some times almost led to the house catching fire).
So now I feel it is my duty to provide Trummels with good memories of the fourth of July. This year I tried to fulfill that duty by taking him to the Antietam Battlefield. It was so great! We set up our blanket and chairs, then went to explore a little, when we where done, we got to go back and hear a great concert by the Maryland Symphony Orchestra followed by a spectacular fireworks show. I highly recommend it, we will definitely be going again!

Sounds like fun. Did they have any re-enactments? After you spoke about it at church Porter said he wanted to go next year.
