It's one of the coolest things I've ever seen.
I had to run to the gas station this morning. Early. Around 7:30am. All along one of the main roads in town are chairs lining the street. Houses decked out in red, white and blue. All in preparation for the parade and all day celebration for America's Birthday.
I've never seen anything like it. I grew up in the midwest, but our town never put on a shindig like this.
I saw a little boy helping an older man, who looked to be his grandpa, put out chairs. A little girl was standing in her front yard waving a small American Flag. Damn....I got choked up.
This is very, very cool. I think it's going to be a pretty good day!
