We sat on our dock and watched more fireworks going off all over the lake than I have ever seen. It was awesome! People bought the big ones and the show went on well past midnight. We had a 4-5 hour show.

I used my super power and missed it all. See superpower thread. LOL!
Keep looking forward. That’s why windshields are larger than rear view mirrors.

We cooked beef tenderloin on the Big Green Egg and had baked potatoes, roasted brussel sprouts and bell peppers. Washed it down with a few Modelos. My superpower was staying awake.

Did not purchase any for the first time in a long time. I’m not disappointed, the wallets fatter, and my fingers aren’t burnt up.

If y'all haven't seen the Plano fireworks, Google that craziness. They are lucky they didn't burn the whole city down and kill somebody. Everything starting blowing up on the ground and then shooting horizontally into the crowd. Burned a ton of land up. Somewhere there is drone footage of the aftermath and the fire is massive.

It was pretty subdued this year in my neighborhood and my dog was thankful for that.

enjoyed the aerial displays but must have been stimulus money because somebody one street over spent some serious money on those aerial bombshells....I've been to some public fireworks shows that weren't much better than last night....
