4th of July at the River

This is a cross post from Mom and Bob's Blog:

A picture is worth a thousand words....and a video is priceless......
You can enjoy our little bit of precious Americana thru the video above that Tiffany created of the Golf Cart parade at Pearson's Island, Simonson, Virginia, along the shores of the Rappahannock River, where Moraticco and Lancaster Creeks come together.


Every year we gather for a Fourth of July feast...this year Sandy and Dean hosted every one at the lovely and historic Indian Banks (think Captain John Smith and those Indians...yes, it's pretty old -1699!) and after a smashing feast, the decorated carts, tractors, trucks and trailers took to the roads to celebrate this country's Independence, for which we are very grateful.


As you watch, you'll see the backdrop for the little parade...cornfields, creeks and marshes, roaming dogs and great blue herons....I hope you will enjoy it as much as we do!

And a huge Happy Birthday to Bob today!
