We had family visiting us from Ocala, Florida.

We went to the Fair St.Louis to celebrate the Fourth:

ate the healthiest food imaginable:

Listened to some good (though very loud) music:

(This concert was by

Melissa Etheridge

and I very much enjoyed her guitar and percussion work)

Watched the fireworks:

a moon rose, red with the smoke:

Red and blue were the colors, ofkose:

We watched some green methods of transport:

AM caught up with colleauges from the St.Louis Metro who were on duty:

(the gent in the white tee is the COO, who just got a designation change

Ray Friem

…most impressive!)

We cheered:

Ate great food at home:

We played board games, talked, played with the children, slept…

and had a great weekend! All too soon, it was over….oh well, until next time!
