Still happenin'! We live just outside a suburb of Kansas City, Smithville, a town of 8500. On Friday morning we went to the town square to watch a kids parade, which included our twin three year old grandsons. The mayor spoke, the kids marched, prizes were awarded, and all the kids got red, white, and blue bomb pops. There was a barbeque picnic that afternoon, and fireworks at night. Love Midwest small town life.
