Happy Fourth!

Tell me this doesn't immediately make you think of the opening scene of The Lion King.


Making faces



Today was the Fourth of July. Instead of baking pies, I spent the morning in the Bitter Creek blind, attempting to trap birds in need of trapping. We have fire training at Hopper tomorrow, so a little after noon I set off for the ranch house. When I got there, only Volunteer Vince was there. I guess everyone else had taken the holiday off. Vince and I prepared a meal of tacos, and drove up to Silver Tanks at dusk. We had a veritable feast of fireworks shows to choose from: Six Flags, Oxnard, Ventura, Thousand Oaks. All in all, we could see at least eight different shows, plus randoms from people's houses. It was pretty special.
