Happy July! The Summer Adventure begins, once again!

 

It's time! The summer route officially starts this month! Only, I'll only be on the road for two months, instead of five! Which will be nice, plus I have my family with me. Some of them anyway, Mom Dad Matilda and Nathaniel. It's been pretty good so far. The first fair we did was the traditional Grangeville Border Days for the fourth of July. Matilda and Nathaniel learned a little more about how to work the climbing wall and bungee jump, and surviving twelve to fourteen hour work days in the sun! Yay! But, the weather is pretty amazing up here compared to Las Vegas. We left the 120degree no clouds, no wind, dry heat weather to 75degree some clouds and cool breeze weather! Amazing-ness!

We do get to enjoy some of the off time we have while working, one of which we do is the classic egg toss! Everyday they have street games and the egg toss. Nathaniel got to race other boys in his age group in a short distance sprint. He took second and got two dollars! Then each day we paired up differently with each other to do the egg toss. Hundreds of eggs are used for the toss; so many people do it! The announcer will call out different tosses, such as, behing the back, hook shot, hike the egg, left hand, ten steps back, etc. When it gets down to about five tossers it get's serious. They end of throwing it over a telephone wire and a good distance of 60-80ft. And..it is successfully done! It's a lot of fun! One of the enjoyments we have here at the Grangeville fair.

Another is, basically visiting my second family! The Lutz's! I love them! They are so sweet and kind to me and my family. Always helpful and supportive! They are always so much fun too! When we finished the fair we were able to spend some time with them! Playing twister, floating down an icy cold river, watching movies! I always have a great time with them!
On the fourth of July; Happy Independence Day! We worked, as usual, but late that night after work we were able to watch the town set off fireworks. It was relaxing and fun, and great as well because I was able to be with my family.
Hope everyone had a fantastic Fourth of July!
