Happy Independence Day USA

I had the grandkids and my daughter over on Saturday to celebrate by watching our neighbor, across the street, put on a 1-1/2 hour fireworks show. It was like a grand finale almost the entire time. They didn’t drink so they acted appropriately and were even quiet. I can’t even begin to think what that must have cost him, perks of having your own business. They filled their yard and road edge with vehicles while we sat in our driveway and watched with a wonderful view and no people, it was a perfect night.
The grandkids did smoke bombs, black snakes, pop its and sparklers. The sparklers, in the picture above, were neon and extra long. We left the dangerous fireworks to the professionals across the street!
I hope you all have a safe and fun 4th of July!

The cost of that was my first thought. I’m pleased you got a free show
Thank you Derrick! He invites us over every year but it is safer and a better view of the fireworks from across the street.

Happy Independence Day
Thank you!
Happy 4th of July! That was some show you had from across the street. And, you didn’t have to pay for it either! A win-win in my book. I loved the sparkler!
Thank you Karla!

Thank you Nancy!
What a fun time! It must be nice to have such wonderful neighbors. Happy 4th, my friend.
Thank you Kellye!
How nice to have your own neighborhood fireworks to watch.
I meant to comment on your bagel post. I’ve saved bagel recipes but never tried making them. I vaguely remember that your son makes bagels
It was very nice, no traffic or people just enjoy from the chair in our drive. Lol Yes my son did make them, I have never made them either Katelon.
Enjoy your 4th of July! Remember why we have it. And remember all those who have died for it.
Absolutely and thank you!
How cozy and close to view the spectacular fireworks show. I remember sparklers from my youth – boy, they were fun!
It was a fabulous firework show Linda. However, he started shooting them off around June 26th and hasn’t stopped yet. He shoots off huge dud fireworks everyday that are so loud they shake our house. Just today he shot them off three different times. I won’t tell you what I’d like to do with his duds!
Oh wow – a “like” for the fireworks show, but not the rest of it. We still have people shooting them off here and its crazy – if it rains, at least there is a break from it. I worry about all those fireworks having one land on the roof – I had burned shingles before. I hope that is okay for your house foundation with all the “explosions”.
Sparklers are so festive – glad to see you made the day special!
I love seeing the grandkids enjoy the day. Thank you Mary.
