Of course we had last Wednesday off, which is weird to me - having a federal holiday in the middle of the week - but it afforded us the opportunity to just kind of laze about the house in the morning and take our own sweet time lollygaggin' into town to catch some 4th festivities.
For this holiday, we chose to hang in Victor. Our timing could not have been better: we arrived in town just as the last parade onloookers were leaving in mini-droves. What? Was it something we haven't yet said? Quite literally, cars were pouring out of Victor as we drove in and parked it at the Knotty Pine.
Every year, the Knotty has a free pig roast and free live music. It was my first 4th o' July at the Knotty and I am pleased to report that the event did not disappoint. Music, people watching GALORE and fabulous conversation filled my day.
A great reggae group performed for most of the afternoon... the dancers were slow to start, but got their groove on later.
They jammed, I am here to tell ya.
The Knotty Pine crowd revels in the holiday spirit...
While Tim gives peace a chance...
Here are my favorite coffee slingers, Danielle and Nicole. We were happy to share our table with them and the beautiful Teton Valley sun....
...we laughed a lot.
Okay, check this dude out - he was really bustin' a move that day!
I will entice you with my moves, stroller - you cannot resist me!
One thing I can say for the Hispanic crowd is that they like to parTAY.
Everyone - get down! A white Jamaican band with a Hispanic dance machine and a few caucasions trying to keep rhythm ... only in the Teton Valley.
Then ya got yer set of public drunkards makin' an appearance...
Trying to avoid public drunkenness ourselves, we hustled back to the north end of the valley, catching some of nature's fireworks on the way home...
... and in our own backyard.
I hope everyone enjoyed the middle of the week day off as much as we did! Happy - belated - Fourth of July!
