what is the first thing that comes to your mind?
my guess is vinyards, fancy wineries ,outragious living expenses, hippies, rich snobby retirees, a vacation...i dont know stuff like that..
however don't be fooled. this weekend my 4th of July experinence proved to me that there is a little redneck/white trash in everytown.
The hyped festival for the 4th of July was the Pillow Fighting Championship!
This was odd to me, but i was excited. I invisioned a ton of people running around hitting each other with their own pillows. Quite similar to pillow fights at church camp. But oh no i was wrong.
Instead this is what i find.
A variety of "colorful" people trying their best to balance on a pipe over a pit of mud while swatting at the opponent with a pillow. and watching these people get knocked into the mud was amazing! we acutally stayed until they crowned the winner. and it gets better...
there was a womens round too. dont miss the combat boots.
not a traditional 4th of July but it could become one..
dont worry we had a cookout and shot fireworks afterwards.
