Wonder if they charge for that?

One thing you CANNOT do: Watch from the tops of parking decks. The city is VERY strict about that. Guess it was a major problem years back?

And yes, after St. Patrick's Day, 4th of July Fireworks is definitely the biggest crowd draw downtown. But there won't be a million people down there LOL -- maybe a couple hundred thousand.

Thanks Newsboy. We had also thought of going to the otherside of the river, but I'm sure we'll squeeze in somewhere.

You reallly can't get the full effect of the display unless you view it from River Street.
