Yeah, Yeah, I know I'm a little behind on this one, but it's been mad crazy around here! This is for last week and I'll do another for this week! I'm sorry!
This is little Evy, on top of Allen's truck on the 4th of July (by the way, HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY AMERICA). We have a little cheesy tradition for the country's birthday. We always go to Taco Bell on Pantops Mountain, take our super delicious tacos, burritos and/or nachos up to State Farm Blvd. and set up our chairs to watch the McIntire fireworks show. It's not a grand party, but it's something we've always done and always really enjoyed and looked forward to! Mom has gone with us the last 2 years and she loves it as well!
This year was exceptionally nice, because the weather was kinda cool and the night was lovely. The fireworks display was better than last year, which was bittersweet because rumor has it that this will be the last year for the McIntire show. Unbelievable...that show has been happening for the folks of Charlottesville and the surrounding areas for as long as I can remember. It's a shame, especially since Mr. Thomas Jefferson, was born here and resided here. My gosh, Charlottesville's claim to fame pretty much IS TJ... ugh... Anyho, Imma keep my fingers crossed that Charlottesville will remember it's roots and continue to show it's country a fabulous light display next year and many more years to come!
God is Love--Peace Out
