My entire neighborhood shot off fireworks last night. It was a little nerve-wracking but also pretty cool. I enjoyed it and took some videos.

I feel for animals and people who don't like and are affected negatively by fireworks and completely respect the stance.

Last night I heard was sounded like fireworks. On July 14th.....It woke me up. Wish this would END already.

And now I realize New Year's Eve isn't too far off, now that the year is more than half over. Here it's firecrackers and gun shots.

Actually yesterday was Bastille Day (France's Independence Day). They might have been doing fireworks for that.

I'm in the US.

Well maybe it was someone from France doing that or having French ancestry. Okay well, I get it but why so late at night. Nobody has courtesy anymore for people trying to SLEEP.

They are startling and LOUD. STOP IT!!!

Some French people do fireworks here for Bastille Day (I am also in the US). But I'm sorry it disturbed your rest.

My cats were not fond of the neighbourhood, professionally presented fireworks display that the locals put on every year at Labour Day weekend. They have it in the park, in the village. But the cats have gotten used to it, and are not startled by it anymore. Girl kitty slept right through last year's display.

But I understand when people's pets are made anxious by them. I know, anxiety is no fun; neither is fear. So I have mixed feelings on whether I want to keep making contributions to the annual show.

I'm glad you were able to get out and go, LL. I understand what it means to participate in social things, now.
