This is my aunt that I am named after, my mother and my Great Aunt Betty. They are standing in front of their house on Garden St. (Aunt Betty and my great grandmother lived with my grandparents at that time - which was around 1935).
We will be spending July 4th in front of our air conditioner during our town's annual parade. We will then travel in our air conditioned vehicle across town to my daughter's house for my grandson's seventh birthday lunch. We will return home while the rest of the family gathers in a parking lot to watch the fireworks.
I hope everyone stays cool this weekend.

Happy 4th Miss Merry! Enjoy your day and stay cool!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a good plan. Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteI understand, Miss Merry. It is HOT! We just came in from being outside for our neighborhood 4th of July parade... and although we were out there for only about 10 minutes, couldn't wait to get back in to the A/C. Enjoy your 4th... but stay out of the heat!
ReplyDeleteThat’s a great photo! Happy Fourth of July 🇺🇸 Stay safe and have fun. Bestest wishes, Virginia
ReplyDeleteLove the white dress shoes! And how many stars are on that flag? Happy fourth. Linda in Kansas
ReplyDeleteHappy 4th of July, Miss Merry! I'm glad you're able to stay cool. I think I'll turn on the fan now and then the air conditioner. It's warm in Hawaii too.
ReplyDeleteDear Miss Merry, the photo is beautiful! Yes, it is terribly hot and humid here in Montreal as well!
ReplyDeleteHappy 4th to you, dear friend. Please stay cool and safe.
What a nice old photo. Stay cool! We are resting:)
ReplyDeleteHoping you had a great 4th
ReplyDeleteNot much fun being outside in these temperatures. Good to keep cool and enjoy the festivities from inside an air conditioned room.
ReplyDeleteNice, I hope you enjoyed your day!
ReplyDeleteGood to have that AC. Our temps moderated on Saturday so standing under the shade of a big oak tree was very pleasant as we watched a local town parade yesterday. Grandaughters got way to much candy thrown their way but the free chocolate milk was enjoyed by all.
ReplyDeleteI hope you had a terrific holiday!
ReplyDeleteI hope you had a nice 4th.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful picture! I hope your 4th was a good one.
ReplyDeleteMiss Merry, what a beautiful old photo to share.
ReplyDeleteI hope the day was filled with laughter, good food, and plenty of cool air.
That is such a precious Family Photo!!! Our 4th was Cooler than usual, brief respite from our very high temps that didn't last much past the 4th but it was sure nice to have it for the 3rd and the 4th and we really enjoyed Two Displays of Fireworks. The City of Glendale had their big display on the 3rd of July near our Home, coz we're on the Border of Three Large Cities that's boundaries converge/blend. And then our City big display at Phoenix International Raceway on the 4th of July. You could see some in the distance of many of the Metro Phoenix area Sister Cities, of which there are many making up this Metropolis, so you had lots of options for Two Days. They stagger it for Two Days usually coz we have over Five Million folks in the Metro area and traffic would become nightmarish if they all did it on the same day.
ReplyDeleteMiss Merry, I'm confused about the photo. Are you one of those little ones? Are they your mom and aunt? Is the tall one Eleanor Roosevelt? I hope you enjoyed the holiday and all that cool air. 🙂
ReplyDeleteI'm not that old you crazy guy!!! The toddlers are my mother and her sister and they are standing with my grandfather's sister - their Aunt Betty! I did enjoy sitting in the ac at my daughter's house. Hope you are feeling better.
DeleteWe also spent the holiday in the air conditioning!
