Independence Day 2017


Percy:  If today is Independence Day, does that mean we'll all have to get jobs to support ourselves now?

Buddy:  No, it means the fireworks will stop tonight and Jan's feet will be 45 pounds lighter.

Percy:  Wow, they must really have been swollen!

Buddy:  No, not swollen.  But since Saturday Marcus has been spending his evenings parked on her feet.

Percy:  Oh, that's right.  He's been guarding Jan's feet so she can't panic and run away.  Or so he's claimed.

Buddy: I don't remember him being so frightened of fireworks before.

Percy:  At least the 4-day weekend celebration is almost over.  Then Marcus can take a long nap to recover.

Buddy:  We all love to watch the Clydesdales.  Perhaps this very short video of the Budweiser Clydesdales in a 4th of July parade will help him relax.

  4. Wow! What amazing horses! Hope you have a Happy 4th of July and the fireworks aren't too loud. Try turning the TV volume up to help drown out the noise.

  5. In our state the HUGE howliday is on the 24th so we have more fireworks coming. Luckily me and Stanley don't get too bothered about them. We hope you have a BBQ today and get lots of meat!

  13. Happy 4th of July! We are staying inside with Bentley too. He is not a fan of fireworks either. The Clydesdale horses used to come to our state fair and they are GINORMOUS!!

  16. We sure hope your 4th was happy and somewhat quiet, dear friends. We hate those boomies, but we're lucky in that Gracie and Zoe do not seem fazed by them.
