#33. Celebrate the 4th of July


#33. Celebrate the 4th of July.

The fourth of July marks the independence of he United States of America. It is a spectacular day to step back and think about what it took for our country to be free. Obviously another part of the 4th of July is the festivities that go on around town. One of my favorite things is the parade! Throughout high school I would sweat and melt in my marching band uniform while playing sweet and wonderful music for the people standing on the street watching us. Now that I am in college, I can enjoy the parade from a different view. This year I went with my dad to our town’s parade. We ended up meeting up with our neighbors at the parade also! My neighbor is about 7 or 8 and is still very much into getting candy from the parade. I teamed up with her and contributed all the candy that I accumulated into her stash. The parade was filled with Veterans continuing to serve their country, politicians trying to get their name out, bands playing groovy music, sports teams chanting their cheers, and others smiling and waving. Later on that night I went to my friend’s block party and ate some very yummy food. We then watched the fireworks from the side of the road. It was a great way to end a super day. J
