4th of July

Consider taking the family to Bigfork for this year's 4th of July celebration.

Hot temperatures are drying out grasses and forests, and fire danger is increasing.

Each Independence Day, you take loads of photos at fireworks shows and of your family celebrations and it's finally going to pay off.

Sadly, they have had to cancel this year's fireworks show.

From Flag Day to the 4th of July, Veterans Day to Memorial Day, one indomitable force has been behind every patriotic celebration in Missoula, Susan Campbell Reneau.

It is literally the next best holiday to Christmas. Granted we don't decorate our homes with dead trees and give gifts, but we do get to blow s#!t up while getting hammered and cremating meat. From our rock family to yours, have yourself a merry 4th of July and raise a glass to 'Murica...

Flying the American Flag is a great way to show your patriotism, but often times it is done wrong without even knowing it. I will always remember one Saturday morning more than fifteen years ago now. I was sitting passenger in my grandpa's minivan in Bothell, WA and he saw a flag being flown upside down...

Three law enforcement agencies will be teaming up this Fourth of July weekend to keep drunk and impaired drivers off the road.

Earlier this week we found out that the city of Hamilton was going to cancel their fireworks show on the fourth of July due to a shortage of funds. Just yesterday, Farmers State Bank has stepped up and said they would supply the $3,200 so the town fireworks show could continue this year...

You haven't truly experienced 4th of July fireworks until you've experienced them from the viewpoint of a drone flying dead center through all of the explosive action.

It would help if they actually took this out of the box before they lit it, silly stoners. The girl who is filming is cracking up the whole time so the video is a bit shaky but their laughter is contagious. They really lose it when a house pops out at the end...

Chances are you're not nearly as psyched for the Fourth of July as this guy.
