Our Little Firecrackers....2013

July 3, 2013.  We went to the Hendersonville fireworks.  This was our first experience with the festivities in TN.   We didn't really know where to park and the place we landed was blocked by a huge tree... Oh well we were looking forward to the next day in Nashville.  



The Band Perry

On the 4th it RAINED ALL DAY..... but we headed to Nashville's River Front  for the Celebration.   We ate on Broadway, and then found a close up seat in the lawn.   We enjoyed a concert by The Band Perry and then the Fireworks began!   They are the 4th largest in the U.S. and were AMAZING.   They were shot over the Cumberland River from LP Field.   Ash was falling from the sky and the display was 27 minutes of several colors bursting at a time overhead.    There were so many fireworks that the smoke blocked the finale so we could only hear the sound!   We needed just a little wind to move the smoke out of the way so we could see the final display!   So blessed to live in this great country of ours, and very thankful for all of those that fight for our freedom!
