It’s 22:30 local and it still sounds like a war zone out there. Once again we didn’t go out and fight any crowds or traffic to see a fireworks display – we can see them when we go to a Friday night Angels game.
From the hill we live on we have a decent view of a local display that’s about four miles away. While we were sitting out in the back we were serenaded by at least three (probably more) red-tailed hawks who were NOT HAPPY about all of the boomy sounds all around. They kept perching for a few minutes in the pine trees in front of us, then circling and screaming over the neighborhood, then perching again. I haven’t seen that before.
Finally, just after 22:00, the 95% full moon came up through the clouds of cordite and smoke, looking like a pumpkin or a full lunar eclipse.
I hope your day was enjoyable and safe.
