2008.07.04 - Day 83 :

We considered going to Boston to see the fireworks along the Charles river, but that would have been incredibly hectic and would have made for a long trip back home. Instead we went to Lowell and watched the fireworks at the Merrimack river. We are positioned probably about a half mile down the river from where they are being launched. It was a pretty nice display that went on for about 20~25 minutes.

This is one of my favorites because it not only has some of the aerial shells, but the fountains as well. I got quite a few shots that I am happy with. Enough to make a gallery with I think.

Unfortunately, leaving the field where we were parked my car was hit. My poor Rav4, not a scratch on it until now. That put a damper on the night. Oh well, insurance will work it out and I will get a new bumper.
