A day where us cats, well... Hondo, Mittens and sometimes Fido hide under the bed as they don't like the BOOM BOOM noises the firecrackers make. They are illegal in our state of VA but that never seems to matter. I enjoy them as does Boogie and Tiskers. The dog doesn't seem to mind but mom makes sure he's inside by 9pm so he doesn't get scared.

Mom grew up in MN and they are illegal there but not in WI. But regardless if they're legal or not, it's never enforced it seems. Mom wishes it could as we don't need a wild fire like poor Denver!!!

What worries mom is that it's so dry here that a spark could start a fire!! We did get rain last night so hopefully that helps the 95 degree heat.

Dad is off work for the 4th, a rare occasion! Mom is happy 'cause she doesn't like fireworks. They bought the fixins' for Smores!! I can't have them due to the chocolate.

Lambie is going to begrudgingly stay at Sully's 'cause he'll be safe from the BOOMS. He won't be safe from Sully though :P

I can go take cover in my stroller in my closet if those booms scare me. I know in several communities here in Wisconsin many fireworks are illegal, but the funny thing is, they sell them all over and people still buy them and put them off. I know in some communities they have enforced a fireworks ban due to the dryness this year. There is still going to be a sanctioned, professional fireworks display going on over our lake near us so I will probably be able to hear that and see it from my bedroom window.
