Bigfork Parade

The Bigfork Parade is a big deal on 4th of July every year. This year was one of the biggest ever. The cars alone were amazing. Rolls Royces, etc.



M1 and M2 got to ride on the Rocky Mountain Bank float thanks to a kind neighbor. They were looking quite festive.



I love the ponies.



This float was poignant. A table set for POW MIAs who never arrived. Made me pause to remember the essence of the day,



My favorite was the bagpipes. They make any occasion more festive.



The Bigfork Summer Playhouse is a huge draw. If you want to spot celebrities in The Fork, here is the place to do it. There cast was singing show tunes in the back of this big truck.



Thousands of people lined the streets. We had guesses from 3,000 to 40,000. In reality, it was somewhere in between :)



I got sprayed by the fire truck and was a little wet at the end. All in good fun.

Hope you all had a great 4th.

Happy 4th!

4th of July Road Trip

We are on a 4th of July Road Trip. First stop: the farm. Second stop: the lake. Woo hoo! (And I have my trusty wireless port, so I can work on Bon Lemon all the way along.) This is my traveling companion M2. (M1 is at basketball camp.) M2 and I are having fun plotting pranks to play on 6 Par Farmer. Insert mischievous laugh.



6 Par Farmer is our trusty driver. (Because he is so camera shy, we had to tickle him to make him smile for the picture.)



And this is me. A Grayling necklace and earrings are appropriate farm attire, right? The day wouldn't be the same without a little Bon Lemon. Even if I am dressing up for the wheat and the ranch dogs.

Hope everyone is gearing up for the nice weather this weekend. Happy Independence Day (Almost)!
