Fourth of July

It has been a while since we made our last posting to this blog.  We’ve not done much traveling but we ard bringing you up-to-date on some of the trips we’ve made close to our home here in Fergus Falls, Minnesota.  We went to a Fourth of July parade and Erhard, Minnesota.   It is about 17 miles north of Fergus, so we found a seat on the parade route, and took some nice pictures of patriotic colors.

  

This picture shows the history and pride of country present here in Otter Tail County of Minnesota.  The old Farmall tractor, long made obsolete by modern equipment, is the right color to celebrate the Fourth of July.  Today it is commonplace for children to bring bags to the parade route to collect candy thrown from the parade units. 
 

These ladies show their pride in their or their husband's gift to our country through military service.
