We just got back from enjoying the fireworks with a family from our church. They with their five children and we with our four. Plus a brother and sister young adult duo.  It was quite the view from the mountain brow. Not only all the lights of the city down below but a large number of houses all setting off fireworks in their backyards.  The bigger show was off to one side at a park, so we mainly  watched IT.  Nice to have a little walk to the brow and we were able to avoid parking lots and crowds. Plus my friend brought her kickin' chocolate chip cookies and dill popcorn AND hot chocolate. Ah holidays! (Also our 12th anniversary today!  HAPPY VICTORIA DAY!
