Great September Day

September 25th 2011 was a great day. Weather was perfect. The clouds evenly distributed themselves over the entire sky. The wind carried the clouds briskly enough that the sun poked through every minute or so.

The leaves on the Sumac trees have changed colors already. I’m looking forward to all the Maple trees turning red and orange soon.

Maple Grove’s 2011 Fireworks

Maple Grove launched off fireworks on July 16th, 2011 for the ending of Maple Grove Days. The fireworks were launched behind the Government Center on West Arbor Lake. I chose a viewing location approximately 4 miles away. After watching the fireworks right next to the lake for many years, I chose to mix it up this year.

Plymouth’s 2011 Fireworks

Plymouth, MN had a very nice fireworks show yesterday June 29th. There were many different colors, heart shapes, discs, sparklies, weeping willows and more. I’m not a fan of mono colored firework shows, and Plymouth did not disappoint. I watched the fireworks 10 miles away in Maple Grove.
