I attended a FW display in a Western Suburb of Chicago, and it was like a time machine into the 1950’s, sociologically. Just one big family picnic. All I can think is the longer we can keep this a secret, the better.
“..and it was like a time machine into the 1950s..”
At a nearby lakeside city park last night to watch the fireworks. Out of the five groups of people sitting around us, only one was speaking English. I had mixed emotions that switched from “if they love America so much - can’t they learn English”, to “Hey - everybody wants to have the freedoms that I enjoy”.
Care to name which suburb? I live on the SW Side between Orland Park and Lockport. Fireworks out here typically aren't that great.
Now the fireworks in Washington DC the other night as we sat on the National Mall at the foot of the Lincoln Memorial were nothing short of spectacular!
