It is Independence Day. I would like to say that we went out to see the fireworks, but we didn't. There were lots of firecrackers going off in the neighborhood (fireworks are illegal in this county.) So I had a look through my collection of fireworks photos and found this one from 2005 when we went to the Pasadena Convention center to see them. I chose this one because I liked how the sparks look. It was pretty windy and the result was nice.
