July 4th Smiles

     On July 3rd my twin sons were at a local festival celebrating the upcoming Independence day, July 4th. This festival was held at the Geneva American Legion. A local newspaper reporter saw my sons playing an amusement game where you use a mallet to strike the lever and ring the bell. The reporter was so taken back by the boys eagerness to play the game and their American flag shirts, she asked for permission to photograph them for the paper. Of course permission was given and the photo was taken. Little did their mother know but the photo was used for the front page story of the July 4th edition of the times.

I smiled all day and still am thinking about the picture.

Thanks all and Cheers from the Cheap Seats.
