4th of July

 I love the 4th of July in Oakley. For an outsider it might seem quaint, but I love it: the parade with the same floats and entries every year, the abundant candy that is thrown, the patriotic program which always makes me cry, the family barbeque and reunion, the rodeo, the fireworks, and all the kids in cowboy hats.

 The kids chant of "Candy, candy, candy, candy" was well rewarded.



Not all hats are cowboy hats!

  Hannah Morrison did a great job singing the Star Spangled Banner.


Happy Birthday America!
