It's July Fourth! Let the festivities begin...well at least if you live in the USA!
We are keeping things simple today, petcretary worked the weekend, and now she has to work today as well...but she always works on Thursday, so it's not too much for her to go there when it's a holiday...she just pulled on some patriotic clothes instead of her regular uniform...BOL! One concession: she always does if she has to work this day, she wears her Canadian/American Flag pin...because she IS a Canadian, living here in the USA...
Anypaws, we hope you all will have a fun and safe holiday and celebration! ANd we hope the nasty boomers of all the fireworks won't be too scary for you. They don't seem to bother us too much...in years past the former neighbors who lived across the street would put on a professional fireworks display at the employee picnic they held on their huge property. We liked it better though when before that, sometimes the balloons from the concurrent hot air balloon festival would land there!! Maybe that might happen now that the fireworks peeps have moved away! We do bark at those balloon things, though...they are intruders into our 'airspace/terrier-tory'!
It is also the week of the Field of Flight, an annual event here. The Thunderbirds are here as well as the A10's. The A10's used to be based here, but after this week they all will be retired! We think the jets flying overhead are far worse than the booms from the fireworks...Here is a link to a post we did (Dalton & Angel Pipo). to show you what goes on there...July 2018 and another one with Angel MJF: July 2014

ReplyDeleteHappy Independence Day!
DeleteYou both look so festive, Benji and Dalton! Happy Independence Day!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the day ~ as best you can. And having had a big air show here not long ago, yes ~ those jets can be louder than the fireworks! JUNE will like spend this evening in the closet, her "go to" place.
ReplyDeleteHappy Independence Day to you and yours!

You two are so cute in your patriotic outfits. Happy Independence Day!
ReplyDeleteAww, don't you guys look very patriotic in your red, white and blue. We hope your 'howliday' is calm and [pedaceful and your mum doesn't have to work too hard. At least she'll be comfy in the non-uni, right? ;)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous patriotic pups!!! A lot of the fireworks displays here got cancelled due to flooding overnight. But they are rescheduled so the noise will still happen:(. and oh those neighbors with their noisy bangs.
ReplyDelete✭✭✭ HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!!!! ❤️🤍💙

Happy Independence Day guys. You are both looking splendidly patriotic.
ReplyDeleteLulu: "Happy Independence Day, boys! We are hoping for a quiet night here!"
ReplyDeleteHope you're having a purrfect 4th!
ReplyDeleteI think it's cool that Pecretary is from Canada!! Love that she wears her pin too for both countries! yeah my boys aren't bothered by fireworks at all but it wasn't as bad here as it has been in previous years. I always love your festive photos and this years' are fabulous as always!
ReplyDelete1987 is a long time. Mom has visited the Canadian Rockies and she loved it there. She actually wanted to live there but just in July and August, which is highly impractical. We don't mind fireworks either, but Fenris didn't like the Goodyear Blimp when it flew overhead one year.
ReplyDeleteWhat festive pups you are. Did Mom make the beautiful bandanas?
ReplyDeleteSaw your question on today's post. The photo of the hotel was the Lodge at Vail.
We only road thru there.

I hope you are not afraid of fireworks ! There is a big discussion here to forbid fireworks, because too many animals are scared, run away, become crazy, even horses and cows, Our National day in Belgium is on the 21st of July, I am curious if there will be a firework or not ! I think for once you could give a tranquilizer to your dog and pay attention that the doors are closed. Of course for farmers its different. A big problem. Little Rosie doesn't care, but I remember our Arthur went under the bed or in the wardrobe !
