Hope everyone had a great 4th of July. Does America rule or what?!
What better way is there to celebrate this important holiday than to attach fireworks to bikes and parade them through the neighborhood for all to see?
Freedom! America! Bikes!
[And thanks to the awesome pyrotechnic generosity of the Jewett Family on NE Junior Street.]

At least the kids were wearing helmets.
Good choice on fireworks placement, though it’s still a little too dangerous for my taste.
This is NOT the right way to do it: http://youtu.be/fRBCQrAPLq4
Good fun, but please please PLEASE be done after last night. The 4th is over! If you have leftover fireworks, too bad.
Please now let the adults who have jobs to get to in the morning, kids with sleep schedules, and terrorized pets have some peace.
