Yesterday we met up with some friends and went with them on their boat to watch the fireworks.
First there was a beautiful sunset on the water like something out of a Monet painting - Still life with Pontoons.
Then as the sun went down, the fireworks went up.
In addition to the lake communities putting on their displays, it seemed like every lakefront property owner was trying to out do the other in converting money into flashes and explosions. Everywhere you looked along the shore would explode into flashes of light and sound.
In short, it was one heckuva show.
After the main event, we headed back to our friend's house and put on our own display - Roman candles, cakes, fountains, and mortar shells went screaming into the air one after another in quick and joyous succession.
It was a great way to end the 4th of July.
