Note <b>Fourth of July This story is from June Gustafson Shaw </b>He (Pappy) and my Dad traditionally built what they called the "carbide-cannon" on the 4th of July that could produce a mighty "BOOM!", heard around the neighborhood.  It had some chemicals in a paint can.  The paint can was nailed to a 2x4.   The lid was put on tightly, then you held a match to the back of the can and it blew the lid off the can.  This was quite a thrill for the kids.  Sure made the sparklers look tame.  Another thing I recall about 4th of July celebrations, was th e FOOD.  We had some wonderful cooks in our family, including my Mom, Aunt Cris (Nanny), June (June Gustafson Dulmage) and others...  I remember Aunt Cris's (Nanny) cinnamon buns, potato salad, and lots of delicious cookies.  My sister Mary Jo r emembers that Uncle Geo (Pappy) always had Tootsie Pops on hand for the kids.  Funny the things that stick with  you....
