Welcome to Watertown

Haven't been back to my home town in quite a long time. It's been 30 years since I lived there. Had an opportunity to return for a baseball game. Couldn't resist going to Mullen's and having ice cream. They have been in business since 1932. They make their own ice cream. I don't even know why I wasted my time eating a cheeseburger first. Split a sundae with my boyfriend, and then we had to split a cup of Marble fudge, with gooey peanuts! Yum!

Happy Fireworks

The evening of the 4th, we lit off fireworks in the driveway. Some were pretty impressive! Got eaten alive by the mosquitos also. Why is it that the times you want to be outside the most is when they attack so voraciously! My new cologne this summer is Tropical Mist Off.

Delicious Cherry Cheese Cake and Cherry Soda

After the cave, we stopped in town for lunch. This restaurant was in a restored Victorian House. We ate on the porch. Got Cherries? Sometimes I just have to have Cherry Soda, and I couldn't resist the Cherry Cheesecake. My boyfriend ordered the carrot cake. We ate dessert first.

Cave of the Mounds

Thursday, July 1st, we went to cave of mounds. Hadn't been there since I was a kid. I'm not a cave enthusiast, but it was fun. Got my collection of rocks from the gift shop, when we were done.

Happy 4th of July!

I took a long weekend for the 4th of July holiday. Here is my house looking festive with the flag. I had these boring beige chairs and table. I chose the color, and my boyfriend painted them for me. What a great easy project to spruce up something bland. I like looking at the entry of my house in all seasons.
