Awww, you guys, you make me feel so bad. It must have been so nice to live in a small town instead of a big city.

In the Bronx, there weren't any parades or picnics in the park, we were lucky if we had a tree on the street. All I remember of that day was shooting of fireworks from dawn to midnight and the noise was deafening. Maybe if we were lucky, a family member who was lucky enough to have a house would invite us over for a BBQ, just to get away from the noise.

Guess I always wanted to live or experience small town living, but that never happened.

Happy 4th and Buggy, that was a great post.
