It was my cousin first year in Texas back in the early 90's and we had gone for a Fireworks Celebration because he heard the crackle and pop of them. His question was always something along the lines of "What's that boom, boom?!" in a very thick heavy North Carolinian accent and it was adorable. Something I always looked forward to during the 4th of July to hear it from him. The fireworks display was spectacular. It turns out that my aunt who is my father's sister and her daughter who is my cousin were going to go out on the boat where the fireworks were being shot off, but since it rained on the 3rd of July they weren't able to go. Instead the three of us went out on the beach, got our spot and played in the ocean before seeing a wonderful show that evening. It must have cost about 50k - 75k dollars to put on that great of a show.
I enjoyed myself very much, shed some tears because in my previous post I had said how it was a double celebration as we celebrated my father's birthday twice on the 4th and the 5th. Pictures will be uploaded shortly, but here's just a gist of what happened. The water was wonderful, the fireworks were spectacular and the weather was much appreciated! Never got about 88 degrees, except at night it got down into the 70's and it was peaceful and relaxing! I can't wait to go back to the beach later in the summer for more fun in the sun.
