If you've spent enough time in SF you'll know: July is (usually) a foggy month. This makes viewing Fourth of July fireworks tricky.
It can be fun to watch the multi-colored fog to a musical accompaniment with a huge crowd that you then get to share an N Judah with.
But, I wasn't in the mood for that this year.
Instead, I watched the Macy's Fourth of July fireworks "live" from NY at The Fireside.
I would have watched the multi-colored fog "live" from SF.
But, no one was televising it.
So much for local programming.

well, I have to say the NY Macy's show was pretty awesome, if predictably sappy.
ReplyDeleteIt was indeed both of those things, my friend!
ReplyDelete(I expect sap on the 4th of July- it helps hide the taste of bitter reality).
We switched over to the Boston Pops fireworks after the Macy's show was over. We were watching with the sound off, mind you- and I got bored watching Neil Diamond high-fiving random people in the crown while he (probably) sang "Coming To America". So, I left The Fireside & made my way home.
