Independence Day

Happy 4th of July everyone!  It was a beautiful day here in Wilsall.  It was just right for washing cars.  So Sara and I did just that.

Later on Laurie and Billy went to go pick up some apple trees.  Us WWOOFers were just hanging out enjoying the day.  As the temperature increase I started to think of ways to cool down.  I had remembered that there was some long sheets of plastic out by garden 3.  I suggested to Andrea that we build a slip and slide.  Moments later we were in action.

It looked like it just might work.  So we turned on the hoses and went for it.  And it worked.

It worked so well the dogs even joined in.

Most of the day was spend hanging out in the backyard and every so often turning the water on to take a few runs.

Soon it was time to fire up the grill.  Laurie had gotten some ground beef from Muddy Creek and it was time to eat my meatday present of Portillo's hot dogs.  Laurie also made potato salad and pasta salad.  It turned into quite a nice spread.  We even had a couple WWOOFers from another farm stop by.

Everyone relaxed on the porch for the rest of the evening.

Happy Birthday Dad!
