July 4 at the Taylor's

Another fun and patriotic Independence Day at JT and Linda's wonderful home on Crystal Lake in Burnsville.

A boat ride to the beach for root beer floats. All the other boaters voted us "most crowded" vessel.

Our boat was second in line in the boat parade around the lake and definitely the loudest.

 Hanging out on the well decorated boat and enjoying the sun and breeze.

I didn't make it through to the fireworks. I was tired from a week of entertaining guests and watching the Twins lose game after game.  But I sure enjoyed floating in the lake...and getting buckets of water dumped on me.
