2008 Fireworks Show!

Kristen and I got a chance to see the 2008 Rhythm and Booms annual fireworks display here in Madison. Last year, we decided to go to it rather late, and ended up in a field just outside Governor Nelson state park. (Lots of mosquitoes, a poor view of the fireworks, and ticks, to boot!)

This year was better.

We found an awesome viewing location in a parking lot just outside Warner park. The lot afforded a wide view of the sky, and (based on my calculations) about 0.5-1 km from the explosions of the shells. A spectacular view, and the booms would give you the whole-body shake that makes fireworks oh-so fun! I strongly suspect that we'll be back there next year.
