| and the sky turned yellow... Sitting in my brother's backyard last evening we were eagerly awaiting fireworks. The wind had picked up, our thinned Florida blood made for a very chilly evening. Well, we waited and waited and no fireworks!!! We learned later that they were postponed until 10PM. My 88 year old mother was with us, the wait and anticipation was more than she could bare. We brought mom home safe and sound. Well safe anyway, she is such a character, but that's a blog for another time! When we arrived at my daughter's home we could finally hear the fireworks off in the distance, about 10:30PM. No pictures of the grand display, however the sky kept us entertained, it seemed to change intensity every few minutes. It was fun to watch people engaging, children running amuck, screaming and happy! It is New England after all folks and one never knows how Mother Nature will behave. Last evening, she saw fit to test our patience, however graced us with a beautiful sunset and marmalade skys! Happy 4th America!  |
