Fireworks!

On the Fourth of July, after driving to Connecticut and back, we went to the home of our friends the Gordons.  For years they lived next door to us.  They bought a modern house maybe 10 years ago and one of the beauties of the house is a deck on the back that looks down on Long Island Sound.  On the Fourth, we get to look down on the fireworks in the harbor, while having dinner with a group of friends who we get to see each year.  It is always such a wonderful gathering.
