Starting With the Bang

As I write, I can still hear firecrackers way off. There were a lot this year and the show from the terrace was terrific.

We live close enough from where a TV network held its countdown so I was able to watch their fireworks display. It was a good five minute display

Yet there were other displays, not as long but equally engaging. It seemed we were surrounded by these fireworks displays. We ourselves could not engage in such for health reasons but it is always fun to watch.

It seemed like an auspicious start. May we all have a prosperous 2015!
