And just in case it rains this year, don't worry! We've got you covered. You can still celebrate the Fourth of July indoors and watch the fireworks or plan a barbecue for a sunny day—who says we can only celebrate our independence on July 4^th?  It’s a free country!  

So if Mother Nature tries to rain on your parade, just move your party inside, grill out in the garage and enjoy time with family and friends over the tasty meal you've been waiting for.  Gather movies or even hold a Wii tournament for a more active indoor Fourth of July!
