Many cities in the area have cancelled fireworks. My kids went, but since the alarm goes off at 4:30 am, I can't stay up until 11 fighting traffic to get home. I enjoy years when I can go to see them.
My son and I got to see a great display tonight. One of the North Austin MUD's near my area puts on a big 4th festival every year (provided drought doesn't cancel the fireworks) that is right up there with the best of them. We got a great spot on the grass right across the street from the park they shoot off from. Nothing cooler than a nice fireworks display and seeing the awe in a five year old's eyes.
I totally should have snapped some pics of us taking everyones illegal fireworks! We had a busy night at the fire station i must say. Even with all the wild fires in new mexico, people are still shootin off some crazy stuff!
