Pyros United

Have you noticed that everything about July 4th has to do with fire? BBQs, fireworks, heat like Hades... I've added a few photos from our annual celebration. This year we had about 70 people to our house and then some of us headed to a nearby town to watch the fireworks. The weather was perfect - low 80s and a bit overcast. Strong storms blew through DC and they had to evacuate the Mall but we just heard rumbles of thunder and enjoyed a breeze. Hope you all enjoyed your July 4 as much as we did - we are grateful to all those who have paid the ultimate price for our freedom and that we live in a country where we can worship freely and can participate in our government.
Ken always gets up around 6:30 AM to start the grilling for our big crowd. His smoked pork butts are always a huge hit!Some of the hungry crowd - we had enough food to feed a small army!!Some of the boys -we enjoyed the ice cream man and sparklers...

Waiting for the fireworks to start....
