Independence Day 2012

Andy had a day off of work for the 4th of July, so we decided to take a day trip!

He wanted to go to Ft. Scott, KS and check out the old fort there.  I didn't get many pictures there.
 


After some lunch, we went to Gunn Park, and enjoyed walking on the trails there.  Kiki was such a happy dog, we let her off her leash since there were so few people around.  We actually didn't see anyone else on the trails!  It was hot, and in the middle of the day, so maybe that was why.  She walked right into the lake and sat down to cool off.  Now we've got a wet dog!  So we had to walk around some to give her a chance to dry off some.



We took a meandering route home...stopped at an old battlefield site but it was closed....Drove through Garnett and looked at the houses we could have bought...picked up some Sonic blasts....found a nice lake and campground near Garnett...


We got home and ate dinner, then decided to go try to see some fireworks.  Our town didn't have any, but the little town about 15 miles away from us did.  We've seen some really spectacular firework shows, so I wasn't expecting much, but I was pleasantly surprised at the show this tiny little town had.
