We broke one of the FP Gal's traditions last night. For years she's been watching fireworks down at Powderhorn park. This string has only been broken three times. Once for eating all of the bing cherries and being punished. Once because family was out of town. And the third for some sinister reason that I can't print.
But...I've got my own favorite place to see them too! I love to watch them down at the Stone Arch Bridge. If you get a spot near the middle of the bridge you get a clear view of the launching. We tried it my way this year.
So downtown we went. Got to see the Guthrie close up (not any better). Got a good spot on the bridge. And waited about twenty minutes for the action to start. And it was very good. From where we were we could see the guys setting off the fireworks. To our surprise, it was these guys!
Near the end they created a steady stream of fire that only went 100 feet up or so and exploded in gold glitters. Very impressive. The whole show was very nice but next year we bring chairs!
