We live on the coolest street ever! Not only is it (I think) the most beautiful street in the city, but our street had its own July 4th parade! We drove back from Dallas in time for the event of the season!
Kids rode bikes
They blocked traffic (not that there’s much anyway) and everyone came out to wave and cheer! Some of our neighbors even play the bagpipes! And they were beautiful!
And all this in the pouring rain!!! Talk about dedication! The rain actually made it a little more fun – huddling under the umbrella waving American flags!
We took the opportunity to visit some more with our neighbors beyond the simple wave and hello. I’m sure that was part of the purpose as well – bringing neighborhoods together! We shared cookies and ate Sharon’s BBQ welcomed to the table by strangers newly turned friends!
What a great way to celebrate Independence Day!
