Happy July to everyone. Just celebrated Independence day with an incredible view of the valley fireworks. From the Hurricane Hill, you could see Leeds, St. George and Washington along with a very awesome front row seat to the Hurricane fireworks show. It was really pretty sitting in the dark, hearing the booms and watching the explosions. It never gets old, I was blown away and loved every second of it.

Its hard not to get a little sappy on the 4th of July, little things make me tear up like the national anthem, the flag, uniforms, etc. We put up our new flag pole on the 4th and raised a huge new flag. It was a great thing to witness. Later that weekend, I went outside around 11:00 and just stared up at the beautiful sky. The stars were really shining and it was a clear almost cool night. Made me grateful to be alive and helped put things into perspective. We are all just a part of a bigger picture, none of us are bigger or better than the other. I wonder if someone was looking down on the world, would it seem as beautiful to them as it is for us to look up at the heavens...
