Second 4th of July!?

Over this past weekend our little town celebrated its mining history. As always at the end of "Pioneer Days" on Saturday they had fireworks nearby our house. Since we were both too busy to plan a meal for our big extended family, we took out family size pizzas to bake at home. Quick and easy, though it was one of the hottest days this year!! 

Then Joe and his brothers put out their private firework displays, mostly to keep our little house guests entertained while we waited for the big fireworks. Up this north it doesn't get dark till 10:30 or even later.

So we celebrated our second 4th of July... Joe's sister Anne joined us this time.
