Fabulous 4th

Family gathered in Nowata to burn money....... oh, I mean set off fireworks... hehe... The world did not end when John didn't buy fire works and I did. Who knew?

Food - Rylko's brought several coleslaws, wild O's brought BBQ and tabouli, Melinda brought fried chicken, Brenda brought cupcakes, Jack made cuc salad, Steff brought pie, and Granddad made stuffed peppers and corn-on-the-cob and chips and fruit were plentiful. Yum-O.
After a rainy start to Sat, it was pretty warm most of the afternoon but fireworks were deployed before the weather could stop it.

The croquet course was hilly with some ruff around the pond.
The horse shoe pit was open for buisness but the real action was on the northern frontier where Rylko boys and Orban girls held the tank war battles. More details regarding these actions are classified.
Who is that behind those foster grants?
Summer is here but the cool front that came through reminds us that fall is coming.

Nothin' like the 4th in Nowata.
Looks like a great time!
Shawna and I pigged out at local BBQ place highly recommended by AquaMan aka Brandon, and then cruised down to the beach to see the sunset and the fireworks displays up and down the coast.
Love K&S

Sounds like a classic! The kids & I celebrated at home and got ready for a trip to the mountains.
