We had a fun 4th of July! After breakfast, I decided to try riding out to work and back. The trip out to work is about 13 miles. I didn’t quite make it to the building I work in, but I did get past the building my husband works in before I decided to loop around and head back home. I also took a bit of a short-cut through the park on the way home — too many people to try to wrestle through on the path! Round trip, I rode 25 miles! I understood after that 25 mile ride why it is that people wear padded cycling shorts…
In the evening, we hung out with family and watched the fireworks at the stadium. That’s one of the many things I enjoy about living where we live – the stadium is just down the road, so we can walk to the soccer fields and watch the fireworks! No cars, no hassle. WOOHOO!
Here are a couple of my favorite photos that my husband took from the fireworks show.
Unfortunately a lot of the pictures I took were out of focus. Congrats on the long ride though.
Not anymore. Now that you are in Seattle, you will have to fight traffic, crowds, and noise to enjoy the fireworks,if you even can. Of course, you can always just stay at home inside and watch them on TV.
Or you can always come back to the East side of the mountains and enjoy the hasslefree, traffic and crowd free fireworks. 🙂
