I cannot believe it's almost Independence Day again!  Hopefully this year, San Antonio TX will be able to have some fireworks.  We were in a major drought and fire hazard last year.  Looks like your area is going to have plenty going on during the 4th of July Carla :)!

Carla:  What a wonderful list of Fourth of July fun stuff.  But... wow... can you believe it ?  The year is almost half-over.  Incredible.  Where does the time go ?  I mean, really.  This year has zoomed by like it had jets on.

By the way... that is a very pretty picture in your post.  Was it taken along the Willamette ?

Carla, I think it's great there are so many areas in the greater Portland area having Fourth of July festivities.  It seems so many places have cut back.  Me, I love nothing more than sitting back and admiring the fireworks.

Carla,

I'm glad that celebratory fireworks haven't been cut back because of budget constraints. Looks like a great selection to choose from.
