Spray paint and funnel cakes

We just got back from our annual trip to LibertyFest, our fair city's salute to the Fourth of July. Memorial Road members volunteer to help every year.

This year we spray painted kids' hair patriotic shades of red, white and blue. It rained just before we got there and drizzled throughout out shift, so customer turnout was a bit low.

Then, after dinner at Steak N' Shake (Erik's idea) we set up our chairs to watch the fireworks and Erik went to get a funnel cake (Jeanie's idea).

There were two lines at the funnel cake cart. Erik got in the shorter of the two, placed his order and paid.

Then they told him to go stand in the other line to wait for a funnel cake.

Forty-five minutes later, he had one.

The fireworks were great, and we made it back to the house in record time. Good stuff!
