4th of July, 2016

We drove to Mt. Airy for their parade. Greensboro doesn't have one anymore. It was cool and a bit rainy, a nice change for the 4th.

 Mt. Airy is the town  Andy Griffin (?) based Mayberry on. Walking back to the car we found this cool mural. They found it and repainted when they took down the building next to this one. Yay for Coke to relieve fatique!

We finished the day at a Grasshoppers game. It was super fun, hot and sticky, but fun. Grasshoppers won in the bottom of the 9th by a homerun, fireworks afterword were SO GOOD. This may become a Hardy family tradition. No hour wait to get out of a parking lot, we walked to the car and just drove home! The kids were excited because I let them all get dipp'n dots. Jason didn't feel well and stayed home. We missed him. Next year I will get tickets earlier though. The kids loved the grass but my back didn't!
