Celebrating Independence Day in Longview WA

Posted on June 30, 2010

Did you already make plans for the Independence Day? Family time, cooking, grilling, fireworks? How are you planning to spend this great weekend?

Each year, when this time of the year comes around, I am especially reminded of all the reasons I am grateful to live in the United States of America. Freedom abounds here still; opportunities are overflowing and are waiting to be taken. From all the places I have been to I still love USA the most.

My big plans to celebrate? I will actually be working HARD! Each year our church, Kelso Church of Truth, runs a food booth at the local lake [that’s where the city fires off all the cool fireworks]. We raise funds for various projects each year, and this year is no different. We will be making and selling delicious Russian Foods in Longview, WA, AND this year we will also be offering Vegan/Vegetarian options, including my favorite—green/fruit smoothies. So, yours truly [me], will actually be in charge of the vegan/vegetarian food most of the time. I have to make sure that all of the conscious folk in Longview/Kelso WA area get served and eat well while celebrating our nation’s independence and spending time with their families.

Here are some fun shots from previous years’ celebrations.

So, if you are in Longview, WA and need a good bite to eat—come see me at the Russian Food booth, at the lake Sacajawea, by the statue of a boy with a dog.

Happy early Independence Day!

PS: We will be there Friday-Sunday this week!
