This year seemed to be a little more crazy. We stayed home this year because of our cedar allergies. I've felt like crud since Sunday. Anyway, I was surprised by how many people were setting off fireworks in the neighborhood. It was nuts. Tons of black cats, but also the big mortar rounds. I went out to watch and even was able to see the flashes and hear the rumble from the big display downtown, and then one particularly big boom and rumble as the finale finished up. The smoke was really thick. I had to go back inside because it was choking me up.

There was also a 32 car pile up on SH-130, and they attributed part of it to the smoke. There was fog also, but honestly, I think most of it was smoke from the fireworks.
