Well, we actually celebrated this on the 3rd, as Burnsville had their fireworks display on this evening. We were told that the "towns" in the area spread their parades and firework displays over a few days, so as not to overlap. The kiddos are currently in San Diego, California, with Grammy and Poppop, so Jim and I went to town by ourselves! We joined the locals, who bring chairs to sit on by their cars in the Town Hall car park, for the best views of the fireworks that were set off somewhere over Ingles, the grocery store. Then, we joined the locals in a traffic jam to get back home- we had to wait at least 3 traffic lights to turn onto the main road, from the town square. We never knew there were so many cars in this area!
