Fourth of July Traditions

Jasper Johns

I love traditions especially the ones we had as a family growing up.
The Fourth of July in Central Illinois went like this....

Parade downtown where we tried to scoop up as much candy as we could.

I loved the The Shriners in their little cars, always a highlight.

Then off to our Club for Water Games in the pool.

Then a picnic dinner in the Grove at our Club.
Same menu year after year and it never got old.
Fried chicken, baked beans, potato salad, deviled eggs and Texas Sheet Cake

Then Sparklers and Snakes before the main event.

Then the big show!

What are your 4th of July Traditions?

Have a Great Day!
