land of the free

And the home of the drowned rats... I meant brave. If it rains anymore though, I'm going to have to steal a kayak from the campground and paddle to work. Seriously, Mother Nature, the whole world gets it. You like water. We like our basements dry. A little bit of sunshine and a nice breeze would be wonderful to dry this all up so the world can celebrate our Independence with dry feet. At least, we want our feet dry before we dunk them in the water.

On a much happier note, someone told me that this weekend is the 4th of July!! So that means it's time to get out your reds, your pinks, your yellows, your whites, your blues, your blacks... Never mind. I'm being informed that you only need red, white, and blue. Okay then. Let's get festive people!!!

Friday kicks off with inflatable bouncers from 1:00-5:00. If you can't find them, you're blind. And now, we have a schedule change: The euchre tournament is not Friday. At 4:30 p.m., we will have the egg toss by the pond and pavilion. Bingo is at 7:00, and karaoke starts at 8:00; both are in the pavilion.

Saturday starts with crafts at 10:30. Kids: they're making ice cream. This may be your only chance to get ice cream for breakfast. 2:00 is the parade. The euchre tournament is at 2:00 in the pavilion. At 3:00 the Farmer Fire Department will be spraying water from the dry hydrant! The hog roast/potluck starts at 6:00. Bring a passing dish!! We're bringing the piggy. At 7:00, the Farmer Fire Department will be serving ice cream. (Side note: Farmer Fire Department ice cream is free will donation. Farmer Fire Department is the responding department if there are ever ANY problems that arise at our campground. They also alert us of any and all bad weather approaching the area. They also put on the Easter Egg hunt, and do so much more for this campground. Support them!!! We will be!)

8:00 is the start of a new band, Pete Schlegel. Google the man. You're going to love him. And last but not least, we're going to be shooting off some boom booms around 10:30 p.m. Do NOT be late.

Ladies and gents, this weekend is going to be crowded. Kids are going to be popping out from behind every blade of grass. Please, please, PLEASE, drive smart and follow the speed limit. Even some adults are to blame for sometimes not looking where they're going. Keep it slow, safe, and smart, or you will not like the consequences. Let's have a grand weekend!!!

P.S. boom booms is fireworks!! :) 

P.S.S. I don't think I forgot anything, but who knows. I might have.
