Brookside of Idaho took a few days off over the July 4Th weekend. Chris and I went to Buhl, Id early on Friday morning and installed a pond-less waterfall at the home of Bob and Gloria Eggleston in Buhl. Bob and Gloria are my wife Charlene's parents. Saturday the family went to the Buhl Sage Brush Days parade. We had a good time watching the parade and visiting with old friends. Had our Fourth of July dinner with our family at Bob and Gloria's. Chris and I got to go golfing Saturday afternoon and even got back in time to go to the Buhl fireworks show. We had a good tome and got to relax for a while. Brookside of Idaho hopes that you all had a great Fourth of July weekend. Hope to see you on the "Pond Tour". Wishing you all well - Brookside of Idaho.
