Happy Independence Day

Since the fourth is on a Tuesday, I’m sure many are celebrating this weekend. Please, be safe. We’ve just spent the day shoppin’ today. My husband works Monday but is off on Tuesday, the 4th. We’ll shoot some fireworks, watch some – and likely cook-out.

Nashville 4th

The photo above is a shot from downtown Nashville – where a huge firework display shows every fourth – over the Cumberland River. My Dad works down there for many things, including the fourth – it’s an awesome show! Photo was taken by Mr. Curley, an awesome photographer. You can see the Batman building to the left (which is BellSouth) and the Titans Stadium to the right.

Happy (belated) Canada Day, to all the Canadian folks out there!

    lol I looked at the picture before reading and spotted the “batman building”. We lived there when they were building the stadium, it was neat watching it progress.

    We don’t plan too much…too hot for that, but most likely will light up the grill. I have to work tomorrow as well, but my two guys are off…

    I remember the first time one of my dear friends, David took me to Nashville. He showed me that Batman building and the Titans stadium.. I was in awe of both. I remember wanting to go to a game so badly so I could see the inside of that cool looking stadium.

    I still always look for that Batman building when we drive through Nashville.

    Hubby and I don’t plan much. We have several options for fireworks but haven’t really made up our mind. I hope you and yours have a very wonderful 4th of July!

    AWESOME picture!!! We had some fireworks last night right next door to us at the church. (I put a slideshow up of them) and we might even go see some tomorrow night as well. Still working that out.

    I miss being able to do our own fireworks (used to in Las Vegas growing up). AZ says no doing your own fireworks…. too many stupid people here to set this whole place up in smoke. LOL Anyways… hope you guys have a great time doing fireworks!!! :)
