I did finish about 6 more blocks Saturday night ... could hear the fireworks a few miles away in town as I sewed. In Bay City (right next door to us), we have a 3-day fireworks festival with carnival rides, food, open-air concerts ... all along the river. First two nites, there are about 15 minutes of fireworks around 10:15 pm, then the 3rd nite it runs about 45-50 minutes. It is just phenomenal. Hubby and I don't usually go even though I like to see them, but his job is early in the day and he is usually in bed before 10:00. So as I sat and sewed more Boomerang Blocks, I could hear the "bombs bursing in air". The finale always sounds like a war zone so I knew we' be hearing lots of traffic shortly thereafter. DD and hubby took the grandkids and they really enjoyed it. Just too many people for me to be watching little ones in the dark!
Guess I'm just getting old ......
Hope you all had safe and wonderful 4th celebrations!
