Fourth of July - God Bless America
Every year we have a few friends over to celebrate the Fourth of July.  There is always lots of food and an abundant supply of drink. Everybody brings something to eat or drink, and Triple Nickel has graciously made his famous shrimp boil.  I usually BBQ burgers and hot dogs  and lots of chicken. We top off the celebration by watching the City of Deer Park's firework display.  My backyard backs up onto the park where they set off the fireworks display (maybe 150 yds away).  I have an elevated deck where we can get above the traffic and mosquitoes.  It has an un-obscured view of the fireworks.  It seems that every year we say the same thing, "t was better than last years".

The fireworks picture is actually a composite of many pictures I took during the show.  It is very similar to (but not as good as) the "Grand Finale" that happens every year.
