Fourth of July, small
Tuesday, July 4th, 2006 at 11:30 pm by BethThe base fireworks were cancelled this year ("sensitivities", says Linda), so we had a cookout on the Cottonwood green with sparklers instead. Burgers, a flag on the fence, and the guard's kids waving little flags that Lily had made from napkins and toothpicks. Mirbek brought a big pot of shashlik, which beat our burgers by a mile.
The mountains had a thunderstorm after dark and that was our fireworks.
