Fireworks on Buckeye Lake

We invited my brother's family to see the fireworks over Buckeye Lake from our boat. They are always held on July 3 at 10 pm. All of the Albrights came. :) Aunt Debbie brought us all special red 4th of July T-shirts! We are modeling them in the pictures! The weather was iffy but the weatherman said the storms would move out around 7 pm and skies would be clear until midnight. Sure enough, the rain stopped and we were able to go out in the boat to stake a spot for a fantastic fireworks display! We had on the radio for the choreographed spectacle. It did sprinkle lightly at one point but we made it through. As we were leaving it looked like Christmas with thousands of red white and green lights twinkling as all of the boaters slowly headed for home. :) It was sprinkling again as we pulled up to the dock. Mother Nature gave us only the briefest respite. Today, July 4, has rained steadily so I imagine it has played havoc with many parades. :(

My niece, Emily, is going to post a video of the fireworks finale on her blog: www.millers.tumblr.com so look for it there soon. ;)
