But I, too, have new traditions. Sometimes they change from year to year.

We used to go to the fireworks show but after a family got run down two years ago during the event (car ran a red light), it has lost its lustre. BTW, they were in the spot that we normally camp out in, but that year it was hot and I was having a lupus flare up so we stayed home. Freaked me out.

We are just grilling burgers and hot dogs but I am making a baked potato salad that I found on Pinterest with bacon and chives and lots of mayo. It just hit me that I have no dessert yet.

The festival is just a part of us. I remember being eager to attend every year, deciding what to wear, who you hoped to see, etc. And we always watched the fireworks from our back porch. Things have changed, but we can still see the fireworks over the trees from our backyard deck. And I love sparklers just as much now as I did then. I have been watching the "carnies" set up since Sunday; each time I drive by they are in a different stage of completion. Today it is raining--hope there is no rain for the parade.
