Additional fun photos from a fab Fourth

Loren displays good form as he projects
his pit in the cherry-pit-spitting contest.
The winner's spit registered 45 feet!

Others enjoyed some peaceful fishing on
the pond. We did see a large catfish
swimming around.

Loren overlooks the whoopie-pie eating contest.
Little Jeffrey (far right) beat all the
bigger boys to advance to the finals.

Mark (center) shows the proper "no-hands, no-holds-barred"
approach. Chris (left) and Jeffrey (right) get ready
to dive in again.

By the way, I participated in the whoopie pie contest myself. It's a unique experience to get cake and cream up your nose and dried onto your facial hair. I didn't get it all washed out until this morning. Would I do it again? Maybe. It might be awhile, though. I'm not sure I would call it an enjoyable experience. I know the spectators loved it, though.
