Fireworks at Christmas
Dec. 15th, 2008 12:30 pmI caved. I've got a YouTube account now - probably will be spamming it with kid pics next year. ^^
However, I have a teensy sample of the awesome that was last night's fireworks off the Manhattan Beach pier - if you want a look:

No, I don't embed videos. Go - come back.
Everything just came together perfectly - from Tommy and crew making it to my house ON TIME (play the lottery!) to getting to dinner, having as much pasta as we could hold (Firemen! Yay!) to getting to Starbucks for coffee, then the Skechers store for swag and more hot drinks...to finding THE place for viewing the fireworks next to the pier. About the only thing that could have stood some improvement?
We needed a few more layers of clothes. Just - oh, a layer of wool or so.
It was dry, with a few high clouds - and wind. Oh, the WIND. Huddling good.
Woke up this morning to pouring rain - and feeling very satisfied indeed. A perfect evening.
You gotta try this sometime. Fireworks at Christmas. How very, VERY Californian. Want proof?
Took this before getting into position:
I love where I live.
