Happy 4th, From Your's Truly

This morning, my phone rang at 7:00 and who would it be at such an early hour but my parents, 20 minutes away from our house and in need of Cracker Barrel. So we rolled out of bed and headed out for our CB breakfast along with everyone else in Ashland! After suitably filling our bellies with blueberry pancakes and more we realized we needed to get into town for the Ashland 4th of July parade that we thought started at 10:00...we later found out that it didn't start until 11:00. Arriving early wasn't such a bad thing though, it gave us a chance to find a great seat in front of the library. The parade was great complete with tons of 4th of July festivities to follow. Plus right after the train came through and the engineer and all the people on board waved to the parade goers...I know this is all to good to be true so here's a little slide show so you can sample the fun!
