It is still an American tradition, Puzzicato, although often there will be public displays of music and fireworks the week-end just preceding Independence Day.

Thank you for posting all the wonderful materials everyone.
Around here, there are many parades, fireworks, and cookouts. We'll be cooking out tonight- the weather is beautiful today!
Have a great 4th!

Having made peace with the unfortunate events of 1776 (as described by Jeeves), I wish all my American Loungers a happy and prosperous 4th of July!

Scraping burnt cheese out of fondue pots, spring cleaning, rearranging furniture, and discovering French breakfast puffs.

Went to a good friend's. Had BBQ. Took my daughter for her first swim (she is almost 5 months). Husband took her for a second swim. Saw some one week old puppies. Decided to get our daughter a puppy. Good, easy, relaxing day.

In the morning went to Huntington Beach for the annual 4th of July parade. This year Lou Ferrigno was the Grand Marshal. In the evening we went to Downtown Disney and saw The Lone Ranger at the AMC Theatre followed by dinner at the New Orleans Jazz Kitchen and then watched the fireworks from the restaurant balcony.

What did you think of the Lone Ranger? I've heard very mixed things.

After having a very nice late lunch at a local restaurant with my lovely wife, we spent the night indoors with our three-year-old cat and two-year-old pup trying to keep them calm while much of our neighborhood "celebrated their freedom" by shooting off their *illegal fireworks until well after 1:00 a.m.. For five straight hours our neighborhood sounded like a battlefield. :mmph:
*Fireworks, even the so-called legal ones, are not allowed in our city and can result in a $1,000 fine if local law enforcement decides to cite you.
