Rednecks must have invented the celebration of the 4th of July. I mean, who else would come up with barbeques and blowing things up and make it a holiday?
I'm also convinced that my church is filled with rednecks. We drive 45 minutes to the middle of nowhere-Newberry to a family's house. Apparently, this is where the country folk go to really get out into the country (kinda reminded me of my house...). We sat around and ate (like good little Methodists), watched our children swing on swings that were not correctly attached to the ground (Jeff Foxworthy...?), and then harassed the cows by lighting fireworks in the middle of the cow pasture. Cow patty casualties were minimal. However, there was one very unhappy bull, and I for one am glad I was watching from a safe distance.
sigh.
I love these people.
