Celebrating Memorial Day 5-24-26

The Country Club a few miles from us puts on a Memorial Day weekend fireworks display for their members. Originally, we could sit on our back deck and watch them. However, over the years, the trees we planted grew larger and larger and larger and now almost totally block the view. Because I never plan to try to photograph this event (or even remembered that it might happen), I again just grabbed a Bridge Camera, only after I noticed the in the distance.

This Country Club is by invitation only exclusive. I've been told that if you ask "how much" the membership may cost, then, you absolutely can't afford it. I don't play golf anyhow. So, I have never asked. But I do appreciate their "free show" through the trees. If anything, the trees now make the display more interesting...

How nice that you got to enjoy some fireworks for the day. I agree; the trees make the scene more interesting.
