Yeah, those rose bushes are full of vines. My yard guy doesn't like to touch them.
I hung my "Star Spangled Summer" quilt across a front porch railing for the reveling neighbors to enjoy on the 4th. That's the only decorating I did.
But boy! Did we eat? Pot roast, turnip greens, corn bread, mashed potatoes, corn casserole, cherry pie, brownies, and ice cream.
Everything was fine and peaceful until about 8:00 when the next-door neighbor started his bodacious fire-works show (as he does every 4th and every New Year's Eve, and once for a wedding). Skipper went bonkers, and I couldn't find his Thunder Shirt. I finally found it when the explosions were over. By then, Skipper just wanted to go to sleep.
I hope everyone had a safe and happy holiday. I think I'll have to diet for the rest of the month.

I love your "Star Spangled Summer" quilt and I imagine the neighbors love it, too. We had the flag out and that's all the decorating I did outside - in addition to our red front door.
My two red/white/blue quilts, "Louis&Clark, What a Trip!" and a small modern version of a flag were hanging in our wee entry hall as always.
Our menu was homemade pulled pork with DH's barbecue sauce + slaw on buns, corn on the cob, tater tots, deviled eggs, and ice cream for dessert. Yum! I had soup for supper last night as I cannot eat like it was the 4th very often either. The leftovers will be enjoyed in due time!
Hugs!
