When my kids first got their driver’s licenses, my wife immediately bought for them a membership in our roadside assistance club. We feel that it is a good idea to do that because the membership covers the driver no matter what vehicle the driver is using – even if the vehicle does not belong to the driver! We’ve had the need to have a jump start or a tow often enough to pay for the membership, so it is worth the expense.
I was hoping to take the family to see the town’s fireworks show for the 4th of July. But everyone was too tired from work to want to go! Everyone in the house was in bed before dark! We could hear the neighbors shooting off their illegal fireworks from about 10-11 pm, but after that the night was quiet. I think it’s rather sad that we all went to bed early; I can remember so many years of making a big deal outing of going out for the 4th of July. I hope next year we’ll all get back into the spirit of the Holiday and celebrate our Independence the right way, and not just fall into bed too tired to celebrate!
