Margie and Paul traditionally hold a 4th of July Potluck
each year where not only do the guests bring food, but

cannon that he fired off.
Paul set up a sawhorse in the front yard and watered
the whole area down.
The audience sits on the other half of the lawn. Alan
had a great time because Paul loaned him his ear
protectors so the noise wouldn't overwhelm him.
