4th of July Weekend

It was a wonderful weekend. The weather was perfect up until Sunday night, but we couldn't have asked for better weather. Friday after work, I got off at 2, we packed up, Tom took the camper down once he got off work and had everything set up, all we had to do was pack our bags and off we went. Friday night was a lazy one, we order chicken for supper and had a few beers or two.

Saturday was gorgeous, we started the afternoon out with a dip in the pool at the yacht basin. It really cooled us down and got us all ready for the air show and fireworks. Here are a few pictures. This one scared the beegeesus out of us. I screamed really loud once because it snuck up on me and it just let out a huge boom once it was passed us.




Here are some parachuters, they were awesome!


Few more air show shots.


It's amazing how they can control themselves and not land somewhere crazy. I guess there is a target marked for them to land and they all land within that spot, amazing.

Here are few random pictures, can you see all boats lined up by the bridge? They shut a big part of the river off during the air show, it's amazing all the boats, once the air show is over, they are free to go up river to watch the fireworks.








Tom's uncle Bob and his friend Sparky! They camped next to us. Nice hats huh?



OK, you're probably sick of airplane pictures, but our camera was awesome when it came to these pictures. After the air show, our flash does not work, hopefully it's not broke, Tom will have to figure it out. But these planes were cool. I can't believe how close they get to one another, I'm sure they look closer than they really are, but we had the best seats in the house for the air show. The fireworks were a different story, but they were good, the ones that got up over the trees anyway!





Here's Boner with his friend Pam.

So the rest of the weekend was just as nice although the fish flies came out, we could have done without them.

Well, Tom's asking me to rub his feet so I think I will pamper my hubby for a little bit before he has to go to work.
