I went to the 4th of July fireworks last night with my mother. The fireworks were held in Pioneer Park and there was entertainment before hand: Tops in Blue (an Air Force band). Since it would be crowded and my mom can't walk far and gets tired easily, we decided to park away from the park, but somewhere with a good view of the fireworks.
We ended up parking on the corner of Warren and 7th Avenue, in the parking lot for the Warren Federal Credit Union. (Warren is a one way street going north). Just after the credit union comes the post office and airport on the right hand side (east) and the road heads west where it splits off into Yellowstone and Dell Range Blvd.
Anyway, we joined about 50 or so people there - not all in one place but in lawn chairs in parking lots and stuff at the four corners of the intersection (of Warren and 8th street).
The fireworks started ten minutes late, but then they were worth it. Lots of beautiful fireworks going off all at once. Behind me was a couple with their two little kids who were ooohing and ahing and were quite impressed, so that added to the enjoyment.
After the fireworks were over I went out the exit on 7th street which crossed over to Central - the one way road heading south that runs across a bridge and turns into Greeley Highway.
