Day Six, July 4, 1992 Denton, Texas

Today we got up late again and then did two loads of wash. Around 4:00 we went into Dallas to Dealy Plaza. It's really cool. We took a lot of pictures, fifteen each [fifteen was a lot on our pre-digital camera era budget]. Standing behind the fence on the grassy knoll, it would be impossible to miss [a shot on a person only as far away as the president was at the time of the shot]. Makes you think.

After that we went back to the West End Market to the JFK Assasination Information Center. From there we came back to Denton. On the way back we passed the Word of Faith Church with its thirty foot satellite dish. Drew said, "they're beaming the word of God around the world."

We went to the fireworks show at the University of North Texas in Denton. [This was the best Fourth of July I can remember. It was very small town and the marching band played as the fireworks were set off above the stadium.]

We came back to Drew's apartment and played Scattergories. One of the categories was National Parks and Drew said "Jellystone." Drew was on a roll. We started to watch Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead but everyone was falling asleep so them we put on The Muppet Movie and still everyone was falling asleep. We went to sleep.
