The BBQ was terrific! But I had to watch the fireworks by myself. I did great. All around me was BOOM BOOM BOOM, and there was a "floor show" across the street that was cool and at the beach the big ones were going off. It was really cool but not the same as the real deal (AKA the "professionally-planned-out-with-a-big-finale" show) I checked in on Elwood and he was as happy as a clam. Didn't phase him one bit.

I only watched 45 minutes of it before I went to bed. I couldn't hear anything in my house. It really surprised me! Especially with how loud it was outside.
