July 4th Shenanigans

So last weekend it was dirt track racing, and this week it's the Redneck Slip And Slide. Complete with a lake, trailer, and even a wedding dress. I know, I'm not helping the southern stereotype situation very much.

We have a big get together each year for our July 4th celebrations, and everyone is encouraged to invite anyone they'd like. On top of that, it was also part wedding reception for a friend who'd been married earlier in the day. We have many new faces each year, especially this time due to the wedding, and something crazy always happens even before we break out the explosives. This year we built a 120 foot long slip and slide into the lake. Not much else can be said. Here's a few pictures followed by a couple videos (don't miss the last video especially):

Someone lost their float, and most of their dignity.
