There is something so exciting about watching fireworks. Is it the anticipation of the "boom" or the shimmery colors of red, purple, gold, green and silver that burst like sparkling flowers into the sky? Fireworks are, in a word, beautiful.
Yesterday was Tammy & Sam's "Annual July 4th Picnic", complete with Fireworks. It was a rainy day and I had my doubts about going initially. I baked my Macaroni and Cheese and headed to Falling Waters, WV. The good thing about a 4th of July picnic in West Virginia is that they are allowed to have "real" fireworks. What I mean by "real" is these are no 'ground sparklers' or 'Roman Candles'. These are honest to God BIG fireworks. I feel it is my own personal showing. Tammy & Sam have 3 acres and their backyard view is breathtaking as it is. On the horizon, you can see fireworks from at least 5 other locations.
The rain did eventually let up. There was a sprinkle here or there. Although the crowd wasn't as large as it usually is, there was still a great turn-out. A bonfire followed the fireworks and s'mores were cooked by all.
