Grafton always holds their fireworks show on the saturday before the 4th of July. This year, they moved the celebration to a different park. They have bands, and rides and beer, and all that. But the fireworks themselves were launched from the parking lot at the elementary school. There's a lot of flat land all around it. But they didn't advertise very well, exactly where they were launching from. So we grabbed a blanket, and wandered down the street until we saw the launch site. We sat down in the nearest empty field. Only about two dozen other people were in the whole area with us. We were practically under the fireworks.
