July 4th was a bad day here in Nashville for many reasons, first off local hero Steve McNair was shot and killed by his 20 year old girlfriend. It rained on the fireworks downtown, we had a tornado warning and a lot of sever lightning during the fireworks show. Now that a couple of days have passed I have a few things to say about both these news items. First off if Steve McNair had been home with his loving wife and family he would be alive today, and this will be my last comment on this tragedy. Second off if the city of Nashville cared about anything besides saving or wasting money they would of postponed the fireworks show. The bad weather had been forecast to hit the city during the fireworks show and they went on anyway. Very dangerous stunt.

This week I had an extra day off and we loaded up and took our grandson to the aquarium in Chattanooga. We have been there before and it is a trip that the whole family loves and best of all it is only a two hour drive and that is a major plus at least it is for me. I drive 10 hours a day for work and driving 4-5 hours for a road trip is not in my plans at all. We had a lot of fun and even with one butt head attack David had a lot of fun too. I look forward to our next trip this summer.
