But after driving home from Idaho tonight, I think I’ve reconsidered my stance (assuming no major fires are started tonight).
The entire Wasatch Front was alive with a fireworks show from Tremonton to South Jordan. I’ve made this drive on the Fourth in previous years, but I’ve never seen the sheer quantity and quality of aerials like that. It was a 90 miles long, hour + 30 minutes celebration of America.
Sure, not everyone lights them in the spirit of patriotism, but it sure helped to put me in the spirit.
