Happy 4th of July Everyone!

I’m a sucker for food, family and fireworks.

First a picnic of brats and ribs and potato salad.  Next we load up or blankets, M&Ms and diet Coke (I don’t know why, but these things are tradition.)

We arrive at 8PM and the crowd was already thick around the bandshell.  We take our usual spot on top of the hill and wait.  Twenty minutes of color explosion.

The wait begins with a long walk.
Glow-sticks entertain while we wait.
Whites on top of reds.
Pop, band, kaboom!
"Smiley Face," the crowd breathes. Now we can go home happy.

Was it worth it?  Always.  What are your 4th of July traditions?

Two more local towns, two more firework displays. 

I think we have enough M&Ms and diet Coke to see us through.
