Fourth of July Fireworks… just a bit late.

I’ll be honest.  There was a part of us that was a bit disappointed to be down in Houston for the Fourth of July.  We had been excited to watch the riverfront fireworks from our primo location on the roof of our building.  While we enjoyed spending the fourth with friends and family and watched fireworks in The Woodlands, we couldn’t help but feel a bit of glee to learn that the Stevens Point fireworks had been delayed because of several days of rain.  They were rescheduled for July 10th, perfect timing for us to return home, invite a few friends over, and see what the view would be.

It turns out, I think we had better seats than people right on the water!  We could perfectly and clearly see the fireworks up high and low, without having to sit on the grass for 3 hours to reserve our space, breathe in smoke from people around us, or swat away bugs and mosquitos.  It was a beautiful evening (having cooled down quite a bit after some storms had passed through the area earlier in the day) and plenty of laughs were had with good friends.  I am guessing next year we may have to charge admission!  Now we just have another year to learn how to adjust the exposure time on our camera to get some better photographs!
