Summerfest!!

Five or six times during the summer, our town hosts 
Summerfest
An outdoor concert with food trucks, activities for the kids...
ending with fireworks.
We don't go anymore, it's too crowded, 
but we miss what we enjoyed most, the fireworks.
You may remember that we found a spot across the way to take pictures of the fireworks.



The fireworks were beautiful and I enjoy seeing them from a distance.
We were going to get ice cream but it was too late!

You live in a really neat area.
I like fireworks from a distance--a distance of at least 1/2 mile.
I have a phobia for loud noises.

You know how to take the best from anything that happens and enjoy it! Crowds are not my friend these days either!
I'm wondering about going to the State Fair of Texas this year. Haven't been in ages and I'm thinking Ruth Ann and I might go if I can figure out what day it wouldn't be TOO crowded! Probably a Senior Citizen Day!
I always love your beautiful photography!

You just can't beat fireworks, and if they can be viewed from a distance even better!
They looked good Debbie.

All the best Jan

Best to view such, from a distance. Up close... Tooooo many people! Plus, all of them have to drive home, after it is over. Not the best idea. You have the best idea. :-)

I always like the ice cream part, not best, but pretty close!

Christine said...

I enjoy a good fireworks display too but not the crowds.
Hope you have a good weekend!

Beautiful. Bet you had fun. If I lived in a smaller town I would get out and about doing things like this but I don't do crowds well so Nashville is out! haha

We are able to watch the fireworks pretty well from our bedroom window. But it's only once a year here.
