This is our 4th of July Extravaganza Show! Every segment is decked out in red, white, and blue! We start with a discussion about the origins of Yankee Doodle Dandy, and we transition into some home improvement quotes from Benjamin Franklin. Finally, we wrap it all up with a discussion of what Thomas Jefferson can teach us about how to use bold colors!
Last Day
It was the last day in the mountains. The end of the trip was just hours away. Little did I know there were still a few spectacular sights waiting for me.
As we rounded the bend, there it was. The sun, just beginning to set behind the mountain peak across from us. It felt like it had waited for me. It had waited to shine its last, golden rays and create a halo around the mountain as it slipped silently, quickly, from view.
Pumpkin Patch
Ah, fall. The days get shorter and there’s a bite in frosty air. Sweaters are required for walks through the garden that was so full of life just a month before. But don’t lament the loss just yet. For bright spots of orange dot the brown landscape.
The pumpkin patch is alive and well. It lifts the spirits of those who carefully pick their way between those giant, orange spheres. It is one last patch of life before the world is covered in a blanket of white.
