we get to watch the fireworks from navy pier on friday, and watch again on saturday at a friends house in roselle.

1. Somewhere along the Evanston lakefront for the fireworks Saturday ...

... I haven't decided if I want to go to the parade yet. I will if my kid(s) want to go, but that seems unlikely.

2. tons of towns have cancelled their fireworks and parades.

(i watch them out the window or in the front/back yard)

3. that's pretty sad.

does that mean they will loosen up on private shows, or there will be more cops available?

4. um...hard to say...n/t

8. Out here it was due to rain, and not being able to set up in time.

Our show is rescheduled for tomorrow night (7/5) in Oswego. It our last year, due to funding problems :(

5. We will walk in the parade in Mt. Morris IL.

I will probably be carrying one end of the banner, as shown in the picture below.

We will watch the fireworks from my yard. I live on a hill in the country. We can see fireworks from four or five surrounding towns.

The overly long named,Fox Valley Citizens for Peace and Justice, had around 30 people there.
Response was great.
