We didn't take our kids to fireworks displays every year, either. I was super excited when we moved into this house, because we are fairly close to a park, and the first summer, we could watch the fireworks display from our back yard. Then the city canceled the show, and hasn't brought it back yet. First the recession, then the drought. Oh, well.
