July Fourth

Hot, cooking days and nights. Parades in town, dancing horses ~ clowns. Sky lights up everywhere, pretty colors fill the air. Animals do not like the noise, the loud noise hurts their sensitive ears. The fourth is over so Happy Birthday.

The 4th of July inspired you to write a very good Etheree, Paula. I feel sorry for those animals who get frightened by bangs and other loud noises. Regards // paul
