What a great Independence weekend!
Over the last month or so we have heard fireworks outside at the nearby High School for graduation and also at the JW Marriot down the way and both times we have stepped outside to see them, Benjamin couldn't have been more excited. I knew this year would be a lot of fun for him when we got to see fireworks on the 4th of July so we decided to go back to Cave Creek since we had such a great time there last year. This year Harold's Corral was having the band, food and fireworks and it was actually on the 3rd. The weather has been extremely hot, think 116, so we waited to go until a bit later but what we didn't foresee was the Monsoon we would hit driving out there. Power outages, heavy rain pouring down making it hard to see and of course the thought that there would be no fireworks. We parked our car in a nearby lot and ran through the storm to arrive to a bar packed with people, they had to move in when the storm came. I got a little claustrophobic but fortunately the rain quickly passed and we were able to go sit outside and see one big GRAND FINALE. I think that because they were worried about the rain coming back they set them off faster and it suited us just fine, I was just happy to see Benjamin's happy face watching them on his Dad's lap, made it all worthwhile.
