4th of July

This is going to be a great 4th of July weekend coming up. We are going to a nearby town on the 4th to see the State's No. 1 ground display of fireworks. We have been going for quite a few years now and it is new every year. We like to eat our supper there of walking tacos, hot dogs, pop and candy bars - you know, junk food. That is about the only time we do that and we have a great time. We take our lawn chairs and sit out by the football field and at the end they set off the whole field as a Grand Finale. There is nothing like it.

It's Hot Here

Just how hot is it? It is 90 degrees plus and going to get worse as the week progresses. We went to the fireworks last night and they were great as usual. Had walking tacos, rice krispie bars with chocolate frosting and washed it all down with Pepsi. Took a coat along as it sometimes has cooled off when the sun goes down but not last night. It stayed plenty warm. The corn is way past knee high for the 4th of july and we noticed most of it was in tassels already so the ears will be forming quickly. The new biodiesel plant is breaking ground a couple miles east of us and all these plants can hardly wait to get the corn crop in so they can make ethanol. We use Super unleaded ourselves all the time.
