Fireworks - Dork Style : - )

My little town has a City Festival

 always held the weekend before July 4th - 

so we had our fireworks here last Saturday. 

It rained all day but cleared at around 9:30 pm -

 so my husband and my eldest niece climbed on the roof

 and watched them perfectly in style.

Yes. 

They are very high on our rooftop.
 I noticed my husband had a bit of a grimmace on his face -
 justifiably worried, I can imagine.

Note that he is holding onto her quite tightly.

I laughed when I saw that and asked if they were ok
and they answered me

 "Heck, yeah, this is great!"



Here is that pic just seconds later:

I wasn't interested in falling and breaking
 my chubby neck so I read blogs instead, heh heh.

We USED to be able to watch from the deck
 but our trees have gotten too tall in the years we've been here.

 I loved sitting with a cold drink in my hand watching them ten years ago. 

But I gladly give that up for having so much more privacy now!

I should write a post about the before and after tree plantings.

But gotta run - got a date to go to the movies with my big dork.

Gotta love a fella that is so cool he climbs on roofs to watch fireworks-
and wears his groovy straw hat he got for father's day when he DOES.

(Yes, he is MY kind of dork for sure.)

PS:

Judith from Lavender Cottage asked below in the comments
 if my husband reads my blogs.
 FYI - I DID get his blessing before I hit "publish."

He is a self-proclaimed dork - which really makes him NOT one.
But it is a fun term of endearment around here. : - )




You all have fun today! 

But be extra careful on those roofs!
