On the 3rd, I usually go to a local suburban high school fireworks show. They put on a nice show every year and I've been going since I was like 7.
My childhood friends of the neighborhood had a long standing tradition (until the past two years or so) that we all come back and hang out at the school across the street from my house. There's a big open field in the back, and people from all over the neighborhood come and light off their fireworks, and it's always a good time. But like I said, the tradition has sadly started to disappear. Over the past few years, fewer have people come, and last year was the first year EVER the cops actually came and broke up the fireworks. I mean, I guess we should have expected it, cause they're illegal in this state, lol, but this is honestly the FIRST time that the cops have stopped the fireworks at the school since I've lived here (16 years!)
This year I'll be at a party for a friends 21st, which is on the 5th!
