I hope everyone had a great holiday (either the 4th in the U.S. or the 1st in Canada). Our little village on the coast celebrates the holiday big time. There is a parade at noon. The whole town turns out to see the city counsel ride in a manure spreader. Anyone who wants, can participate. We have the Marching Anchovies, the Umbrella Drill Team, and many other local groups.
The whole town turns into an outdoor market for the afternoon. Everyone eats until they can't possibly eat more. There is live music, and this year there was belly dancing and fire dancing.
At dark the fireworks start. This year some of the onlookers were sending up bursts that rivaled the professional ones.
We gathered with good friends for the festivities. We had a good time as we partied and celebrated our freedom.
