SCHEDULE: Fourth of July with neighbors

It is too bad that all activities, including the North Idaho Fair, have been canceled. Here is an idea for all of you who won’t know what to do on the Fourth of July. Have a block party in your community. Have neighbors gather in their own front lawn areas. BBQ, desserts and of course fireworks. Combine all fireworks and share. Guess what? You will enjoy the evening.

I remember when I was a child this is what the neighbors did. It is fun when we had sparklers, worms and all the fun and safe fireworks that children played with. Remember to be safe, social distance and have a great evening.
