July 4th was lots of fun, we went to Vermilion to spend the weekend with Nikki and family. Saturday was cloudy, but the temps were comfortable. That evening we built a fire on the beach for s'mores, and watched the fireworks. There were fireworks going off over our heads. People at the far ends of the beach were doing them, as well as some people just a few hundred yards from us. These were really good fireworks, not just bottle rockets. Besides these , we could also see the firework displays at Cedar Point, Put-in-Bay, and Lorain. We watched for over an hour.
Sunday we woke up to beautiful sunshine and warm temps. Really nice weekend!
