Yeah, I didn’t think I’d be blogging, either, B U T…

…just LOOK at this blogging spot!  It’s magically delicious, much more so than Lucky Charms!

There ARE alligators in the pond on the left, but they’re hiding this morning.

Hope you all had a lovely Fourth of July.  After our day on a s.u.n.n.y. beach (see Robin flippin’ a dozen back handsprings…okay, not literally–it was more like three;)–but VERY figuratively) in which I have new tan lines and painful-but-I-don’t-care sunburn in places, our day ended with fireworks on that same beach.  I tried to take a few pictures in "Fireworks" mode on my camera, this is the best of ’em…

We had a little fun snapping some maniacal nighttime pictures though–don’t the Dscn1869boys look demented?

Since it’s MY blog, somehow I’m able to keep my veryscary pictures out of all this :).

The BEST part about watching fireworks from the beach is instead of a cacophony of eardrum-ripping percussion, you hear the beautiful rhythm of waves signaling their approval, nature’s applause. 

And the show didn’t end when the fireworks were over…as we packed up our beach chairs and headed back to our condo, the clear night sky still performed–a million stars, silently suspended, begging us to stay a little longer…and so we did :).

    Somehow, I would rather my daughter out with these demented boys…the one she has now is scarily…older…and less maniacal.
    Great shot! I wish I had been further away from our display, but that’s what you get when you go redneck and shoot them yourself.

    fireworks on the water are so much safer… IHere, in fact, one of the little league bleachers was destroyed by fire from stray works.
    tsk.

    You’re my beach-girl kindred spirit, and it’s looking like we’re not going to make it to a beach this year! ACH! I may shrivel up and die.
