Real Life Adventures by Gary Wise and Lance Aldrich for July 04, 2022

Depending where you live it also could be the heat.

Couch potatoes

Crowds of mosquitoes driving their cars.

Poor scared doggie

Thunderstorms and COVID threats too!

I’m at a dead end rural road, where people from town think it’s a great place to do fireworks. So I have to stay home to make sure they don’t set my dry yard on fire.

I’m afraid the dogs would tear up the house trying to escape from the noise. If I’m close by, they are (mostly) ok.

HIPPY 4TH OF JULY!!!!

Just a lot of noise anymore, if you ask me.

Empty Nest: Hi-def big screen TVs

The noise, the smell, the heat, etc.

Chiggers in the grass.

I’ve never seen the appeal of watching fireworks on TV. But to each their own.

My wife said No!

I used to love going to the fairgrounds to watch some awesome fireworks. But, then, fighting the traffic to get home. Was it really worth it? Maybe, since all I really remember was the fireworks, especially when the kids were young enough to really appreciate it. Today? I’ll watch it on t.v. maybe.

The shootings…

The possibility of shooters.

Mostly the mosquitos.

I am watching fireworks right outside my window. I can sit on my front porch. They have been going off all day and will into the night. Why drive somewhere, pay to park, bumped by crowds and possibly murdered by an 18 year old incel with an AR15? Safe here at home. :)

The disrupting teenagers (and others) causing trouble so much that the fireworks are never again held in your town and neighboring towns.
