The fourth of July
Today was pretty cool. The day started out quite warm. We had a bunch of people over for a bbq and now we have a ton of food left over, which is a good thing since most of us haven't gotten our pay checks yet. Then we played some stick ball which is hitting a wiffle ball with a broomstick. This game has become a big thing at our gettogethers. Some people went down and bought some fireworks for at home and since we couldn't wait we went ahead and set them off right then and there. However, as we started a storm started brewing with wind and dirt everywhere. It was fun anyway. When the time came we all walked down to the college to watch the fireworks. Even though it was really neat to see the fireworks at the same time as the lightning I think Soboba's fireworks are way better. There was a radio station that played patriotic music to the fireworks but when someone mentioned it being choreographed "Mr. Third Grade", a math prof at the college said, "choreograph is too big a word for Idaho." Laughter all around since no one is from Idaho. Now as I am writing this it is raining. We have the craziest weather here. Good times!
I am too tired now but look for pics of the inside of my house next time.

we had lightning and thunder here yesterday, too :) except we didn't actually end up watching fireworks live (aside from the local illegal ones obtained from the reservations)...i think it was estimated that 150,000 people attended the closest display over lake union. we certainly LISTENED to that one, though ;) (danny *hated* it) -N
We had people all around us shooting off fireworks from around 8 when we started to around midnight when it started raining.
Yeah that's the number I have. Maybe I'll try it again.
