And the "they are doing fireworks at 10:30 at night ON A SUNDAY in Milwaukee and they are loud as heck but I can't see them because some stupid skyscraper is in the way so I get all the pain and none of the fun" threads.
Oh wait -- there aren't any of those, are there?
Hey, we are having fireworks tonite, a Sunday nite, down at Capitol Lake in Olympia Washington, as the ending to what we call Lakefair, a festival of rides, lots of food, and crafts...
Oh, gosh darn it, I am stuck here at home, and cant see them because I dont want to drive down there, and hunt for parking, miles away...so I get all the pain and none of the 'fun' threads...
See there, I can whine and cry with the best of them...
What I said about our Lakefair was absolutely true...we went year after year after year, when the kids were young...now that I am a 'senior' lady, I chose to stay home...
