Independence Day 2009
Today wraps up a busy month of activities for the Humphries-Dolnick family, as you recall. We went to the Skokie Independence Daycelebration at Niles North High School. This is where we usually go when we’re not out of town on the 4th.
To start things off, there were games for the kids. They had a couple of bands playing; the first band was unmemorable and I don’t even recall their name. The second one was called “7th Heaven” and they did a great job, including a jam where they covered 30 songs in 30 minutes. There was also food. Then the fireworks. Then the traffic jam.
We got there very early so we could get good parking right by the grass, and then watch the fireworks from our car (and make a hasty exit afterwards.)
Pictures, as usual were taken and can be enjoyed HERE.
