Fireworks

Thousands of Middletown residents came out to see the fireworks display over the river on the Second of July. Walking down from the Nation Beat concert at Wesleyan, it seemed that College Street, Main Street, Riverview Parking Plaza, and DeKoven Drive were full of people.  The biggest crowds, however, were in Harbor Park. In fact, the tunnel under the highway was a bit of a "traffic" jam of people after the show.  

Everybody seemed to enjoy themselves, as the fireworks became more and more spectacular. In fact, where I was standing people kept saying over and over, "OK, this is the finale" as each burst became more impressive than the last.
