I consider the 4th of July weekend the real beginning of summer. It congers up childhood memories of picnics, parades, and fireworks. Many small towns in south Jersey still celebrate the holiday as they have for decades. Tuckerton is no exception.
I thought I would share some memories of two past Tuckerton 4th of July parades and a portion of a Tuckerton fireworks display for those of you out in the Blog-O-Sphere who won't be able to partake in this year's Tuckerton 4th of July festivities. You may even see someone you know at the parade. Rumor has it that Rickie White Shoes may be in one of the parades, but I couldn't find him. If anyone spots him, please let me know.
May you all have a safe and enjoyable holiday weekend!
