We started out by "hiking" or really just walking around a local reserve right here in town. We had intended on doing some real hiking and going up to Rib Mountain but by the time we got going it was really warm and sunny. I was worried about Sam overheating and getting sun burned so we decided to just stay close to home and someplace that we knew would be pretty shady. So we loaded up Sam, Polly and all the stuff to be prepared for anything and headed out. It worked out great! Sam loved the walk and was so happy the whole time.
My little flower child!Then, we headed to downtown Stevens Point and happened upon the 4th of July parade! I was so excited. We did not even know that our town had a parade and we just happened to go down there at the right time. It was great. We walked around, got some lunch and watched the parade. Not great pictures but I had to get something to document Sam's first fourth of July parade!
Only in Wisconsin would a parade float consist of a John Deere tractor pulling a "Got Milk" float. You can't see them but walking a long side this float were grown men dressed up as cows; utters and all!! Only in WI!

When the parade ended Sam had had enough. She was exhausted and hot so we headed home. She took a great nap and woke up happy. We had a babysitter come over last night so we could grab some dinner. We ended up having a great time out at a local pub playing darts. Good end to a wonderful day.
