We had a great time. The legislature grounds were packed and people were having an awesome time with the music and all. It was a friggen zoo getting out after the fire works. It took us two hours before we even tried moving our vehicles. Apparently some ass holes took the party too far later on tho and tore up a beautiful part of town celebrating being Canadian. Bless their souls as they cool their heels in jail, the dumb asses 😉

Well I didn’t do a whole lot for Canada Day, it was cool, windy and miserable, but luckily the wind died down by the end of the day and I was able to enjoy our fireworks…luckily they took place about a quarter mile from here and I could see them by walking to the end of our sidewalk…it took me a good thirty seconds to go home afterwards…
