I wish you all could have been at NorthCroft with us on this 4th of July! We had a wonderful day with perfect weather. Grandad and Tom did a great job with the fireworks; Mimi was pleased that all safety measures were taken and none of the forest was in danger of catching on fire!
A first! Grandad took Emily and Andrew to put rafts in at first-ford and they ran the creek all the way down to the cabin. The water was rather low and they got stuck on the rocks a few times but, none-the-less, they made the trip all by themselves!
We had a great lunch under the picnic shelter and topped it off with a strawberry flag cake and blackberry cobbler (berries hand picked by Mimi and Andrew!).
Hope you all had a great day too! ...Oh, how was the Peachtree Road Race? I would love to hear about your Fourth and see some of your pictures. I will share them on Chatterbox too.

The Fourth at the Gutting home,
consisted to that fried chicken,
sandwiches, chips, a wonderful
banana pudding. Also a ship trip
from Guttings to T. J. Maxx by
Hugh and Yegor. Later after five
the Patton-Nikolayev's went to Nashville to River Front Park for
concert and fireworks. Lou went
to "THE LAND" to paint up another
gallon of paint, Judy was supposed
to get a nap. and Yours Truly came
home to water the thirsty flowers.
A fun day. That blackberry cobbler
sounds wonderful. Nana
Nana-Thank you for sharing the Gutting-Patton-Nikolayev's 4th of July day! It is so nice to know how everyone else is celebrating. I'm sure it is good to have Yegor is home!
