God bless you;
Tomorrow is our Fourth of July celebration. The residency is very high with a couple of thousand people coming in. I have to deliver a eulogy for a memorial service for one of our cabin owners at 10:00 AM, with many Wichita lawyers and a large volume of our residents in attendance. There will probably be 200+ at the service.
We also set-up our mortars, and organize a couple of hundred 3", 4", 5", 6" diameter shells, and prepare for tomorrow nights show. I will also be patrolling the lake, and handling any emergencies.
I start at 7:00 in the morning and my day ends at 1:00 the next morning.
I pray for strength for the journey, words of comfort for the bereaved, and may our Father have His hand upon all who sojourn here tomorrow and through the weekend. Three days of fireworks, fast boats, alcohol, and excitement.

May the Lord bless both you and your day Caretaker...
Was reading about the fires out west and thinking of you yesterday.
Praying they stay way away from you and your beautiful lake.

Amen to that Keith. We are mightly blessed people...even though many want to trash it all.
That is why we like to go over to Patrick Henry's to celebrate...lots of speechifyin'...reading of the "Give me Liberty or give me death" speech. Mr. Henry's great great great whatever, grandson reads it...and he looks just like the portrait of his great great great whatever, grandfather...
Then at dusk a reading of the Declaration of Independence...and a great fireworks display...all of that is accompanied with prayer...in public...cool.
meanwhile, under a huge ole osage orange tree..with a drumstick in one hand and a 'mater biscuit in the other, will be sittin' a thankful and grateful ole Duck...
yep, we are mightly blessed in the country!
Amen! and pass the chicken...and buscuits.
Btw DB...I got fried pies(apple and sweet potato) to go with all that and ice cold iced tea...
;D
