Holiday Celebrations....

Happy Labor Day Y'all.....  The temperature where I'm at is 62 degrees...YAY!

I learned something new this weekend....I did not realize  that people celebrate Labor Day with Fireworks.



(Borrowed Picture)

Seems that a good many of the towns/cities that we traveled through, were having some kind of weekend celebration with fireworks planned as part of the festivities....

There was one town that we dove through, in Arkansas, that was having a HUGE garage sale...The highway was lined up with people selling all kinds of stuff and junk.....We would loved to have stopped, but as we were driving through, the rain started pouring down.  HEAVY RAIN DROPS!

Another city was having a Blue Grass festival along with fireworks over the lake....and the town of Clinton was having a celebration of old wagon races....

I guess I never realized that there was so much to do on Labor Day Weekend. 

We usually stay home on Holiday weekends, and I guess this is perhaps, the reason that I have never had the knowledge of knowing that there are Labor Day celebrations with fireworks.

I hope you all are enjoying a wonderful day with your family and friends....and don't forget the FIREWORKS!



Warm Hugs and Sweet Blessings!

Busy Monday

I sure enjoyed reading all of your post last night.  I was busy most of the day, but when I did sit down last evening, I grabbed my computer...
