SPECTACULAR FIREWORKS

There was an echo throughout the crowd after the fireworks tonight ..."these were the best ever". They may be right about that. They were spectacular. Of course, one can't describe them and do them any justice. You have to be there to understand. The weather held, there was no wind and it was perfect timing.

The committee had everything placed very well, and attention to details paid off. It didn't seem at all as crowded in the area between the food booths as it did last year. The hamburgers were great and the funnel cake lines were very long. Everyone seemed to be having a good time. I loved the evening visiting with family and friends.

Afterwards, I sat in my car for half an hour just waiting for the line to start moving. But, I expected that to be the case and it's no bother. I never have figured out why some people keep their engines running all that time when they aren't going any place. It was a grand evening.
