Happy Birthday America!!!

Happy 243rd Birthday America!!!  Well, technically, it's not until tomorrow but my sweetheart has to work Friday morning and staying out late tomorrow night is just not the best plan.  He has done the amazing thing and located a fireworks display taking place in the city tonight.  As soon as he finishes work, we are on our way down to the Texas Ale Project brewery which is just right around the corner from where he plans to sit and watch the fun.  Since we are a bit early, we snag a perfect vantage point in the yard to sip, snack, play games, and just enjoy the day.  As the place fills in, people watching takes place too.  We both have to laugh at the lady with two cats in a double stroller.  Goodness.




The sun is starting to set and we are on our way to the levee -- for what we hope will be the perfect vantage point. 



Isn't it fascinating that the direction you look changes the whole light of the picture?  There is a party happening on the bridge, but we're just happy to sit over here and relax.


Watching the lights of the city come on.


On the bridge too!


We really do have a great view.


A little darker still -




Gotta be getting close now.



And away we go --- I tried to take pictures, but Mister pushed the camera down and said to just enjoy the moment so I only have a few.





This one shows just how close everything was to us.






All I can say is WOW!  This was truly the best fireworks display I have ever seen.  It went full blast the entire time and both of us were in awe.  It's on our list for next year now --- no more fighting crowds.  This has been a magical night and . . .


we don't have to get in our car and fight traffic just yet.  Back to the brewery to listen to music for a short time.  The roads clear and we have no issues driving home.  Love, love, love the date Mister.
