I hope everyone had a great 4th of July holiday and that you survived the heat. We finally got some much needed rain. The Patriot 4th of July parade was awesome just like it always has been. There were a lot of entries this year. We also had a nice crowd watching the parade and braving the heat. I hope everyone enjoyed it and the Memorial Service, and community picnic. Thanks to everyone who participated and those who came and enjoyed the holiday in our great town.
