The carnival has arrived!
Boy! I wish you all were here to enjoy this season in Clear Lake! It's just beautiful and hopping with activity and anticipation. Dad and I will be going to the parade with Grandma and Grandpa - hanging out at the same house we did when we came together. We've invited the extended family over for a post-parade BBQ - looks like we'll have about 35! Wish it was 43!!!!!
Andrew, Jeremy, Tyler, next year maybe we can go on the Dizzy Dinosaur ride together!!! And there's this really cool slide! Guys, Dad may even spring for the games. Uncle Migs, they even have alligators!!!! You'll feel right at home!
Love you all so very much.

I wish you were here, too!
Maggie and I took a walk after dinner tonight and watched the sun set over the lake. The place was alive with the excitement of all the activity. We walked through the park where there was a band singing all the old Beatles toons - and they were attired in St. Pepper's costumes! The park was packed with people - just like our concerts in the park at Dover and Hendricks. It is so much fun!
I think it's better when you live here because you know that tomorrow you can just walk back, listen to a band, play a game, get a chirro or go on that ride. You don't have to try to pack it all into one outing. Maggie and I will definately be back tomorrow! Man! I wish you all were here!
By the way, it's official. Bill and Hillery will be walking in the parade. They're number five so security can get them through safely. This place is going to be nuts!!! So glad I don't have to drive!
I love you soooooooooooooooooooooooooo much.
Wait... what?? Bill and Hilary are walking in the parade in Clear Lake, Iowa? Is there an important primary there or something??
Ohhhhh the fair! I think that the 4th of the July is one of my best memories from Iowa! I loved the parade and playing cards on the grass in front of the house. I loved the fair at the park and the boat ride firework show. No firework show has ever come close to the clear lake one in my books. It was so beautiful over the water! I hope that you enjoy this fun holiday. Wish I could be there!
