We had to take a drive over to The Truck Place to collect the truck that had been worked on by Dale,
and while the men talked trucks, the little boy and I hung out at the driver's lounge that had satellite TV, Lazyboy loungers, magazines, coffee and even trail mix!
Needless to say, the little boy wasn't feeling too put upon waiting for daddy :)

A Stop by Lake Fort Phantom
Our neighbor, Charles, has a place out by the lake, and has told the hubs that we were welcome to stop by there any time we wanted to.
So, one Sunday, after lunch, we drove over to the place, and it was quite beautiful.
They had a little cabin they were working on, with a lane winding down to the water.

There was a little dock at the end of the little walkway, where you could look out to the other side of the lake and feel like you were floating down a large river, lulled by the waves.
We walked around curiously, exploring all the different places that had direct access to the water.
The hubs said we should try to go again soon, with fishing rods in tow the next time!

Happy 4th of July!
We drove over towards The Zoo, where Westex Connect was going to be putting on the July 4th Fireworks Show.
We hadn't gotten tickets to be "inside" the Festival Gardens for the fireworks, but we joined the throngs parked along the side of the highway to watch the show instead.

We didn't have to wait very long, and pretty soon, the fireworks were brilliantly lighting up the night sky
We were impressed with how long the show went on for,
as well as the variety of fireworks used.
After a minute, we decided to sit out on the fold-out chairs we had brought with us, to get a better view of the festivities.
We were so close that at times, we were afraid sparks might rain down on us!
The finale was especially rousing and certainly closed the night with a bang.
Ominous but Beautiful
We were walking out to go get the mail and newspaper, and were greeted by these storm clouds.
Very beautiful,
yet having the potential to create much havoc.
