Did you watch the fireworks? I am very fortunate. I can go to my livingroom window and see them from there. I do not have to deal with bugs and people infront of me or traffic. I did watch the fireworks. They are so beautiful. My husband does not watch them with me. He does not think they are big deal. My mother likes them, though. What is your favorite color of the fireworks? Mine is perwinkle, which is a combination of blue and purple.

Yes I watched them so i did not have to go very far to watch them. I dont have a favorite color. They are all beautiful. To me it is the sounds that effect me because I have to keep my dog calm from going crazy after hearing the sounds.

He did sit there and look up at them but then he is more interested in bugs and cats.

Your husband needs a good 'klap' (clout) Joep and I just love them, he would stand behind me and fold his arms around me and we watch them till the very end. I am just as fortunate as you, our house is build on a little hill and we have a balcony which makes it easy to see even when they are on the other side of town. which is once a year with the Port Festival. I like the red, gold and ice blue colors. It is better to watch them form far no people, and you don't hear that overwhelming noise just the beautiful colors.

Isn't that beautiful that he does that. Joep knows what he has. Don't forget...you willed him to me.

We went to the lake to watch the fireworks. My boyfriend and his whole family went, even his 96 year old grandmother. I love all the colors but my favorite is the white ones that have those little sizlers come out from them. Its hard to explain. I hope you know what I mean.

I didn't watch the fireworks, but I could hear them and so could my dogs. THEY didn't like them very much. : ) It's old fashioned, but blue and red are my favorite color of fireworks. Traditional colors like the ones I mentioned are really nice, but the "newer" available colors add a welcome element of surprise.

Maybe if you put the dogs on your lap and let them SEE the fireworks they could better relate to them.

I have great fascination for fireworks. We have the largest display of fireworks (for that matter in the entire world) on a festival occasion named TRICHUR POORAM every year during the month of MAY.It's an exquisite combination of variegated colors lighting up the night sky .Just inexplicable.

View from garage deck - We come up here to watch our neighbor's fireworks
I love watching the fireworks, but I don't have to go anywhere to see them. My husband built a two story garage with the upstairs done into a rec room with french doors opening to a deck. Whenever we hear the neighbors setting off fireworks, we go up there to watch. Since it rained on the fourth, they waited until last night to have their party. It went on for over an hour, and they had so many, it was like a professional show. My favorites are the green and purple ones. There were also lightning bugs all around, adding to the show. It's better than going out anywhere.

And what did you do to get him to build a two story garage with the upstairs done into a rec room with french doors opening to a deck, might I ask? What is your talent? :)
