Happy 4th of July!!!!!

I hope all of you are having a great and safe Holiday. Please take a moment to think about the men who put their futures and lives on the line and were brave enough to declare our independence.

If you have a little time, click on this link. It's Why I Love America narrated by John Wayne. I think most of you Full-timers who have been out here on the road for awhile can really identify with it, and probably have seen many of the places he talks about.

Yesterday afternoon, Jim and Linda took CLT and went to the Market Square Cheese store, located over on the other side of Lake Delton, where they bought a bunch of cheese and some sausage to take to the reunion. Then when they got back they took naps, talked to the neighbors and watched a little TV.

For dinner, Jim cooked a couple of small steaks on the grill while Linda sliced up some tomatoes and boiled some potatoes. Then it was TV again until bedtime.

Oh, and another thing. With all the people here in the Dells area for the weekend, the Internet completely shut down yesterday afternoon and evening. Jim talked to a couple of people here in the park, and they couldn't get on either.

Today, the rest of the family will be getting here for the family reunion. It'll be about 4:00 before they can get into their rooms, so Jim and Linda will be here for a good part of the day, and then they'll go over there and finish preparing dinner while the rest of the family gets unpacked.

Did you know that July 4th was not a federal legal holiday until 1941?
If you still have a little more time check this link. it's Red Skelton's version of the Pledge of Allegiance

Have a great day.
