Fireworks

Every year, this place hosts this tent for the sale of the US' 4th of July celebration with fireworks. I watched this for a while today and I can tell you that business is very, very slow. I guess in this economy, few have money to burn.

Ready, Set...

Here it comes, ready ot not! Things are gearing up for the US Independence day celebration. The French has "Quatorze Juillet," and we have July 4th. This location is reserved for the annual sale of merchandise for July 4th (sale of fire crackers and related firework items,) Halloween (sale of pumpkins,) and Christmas (sale of XMas trees.) The tent was erected yesterday and sales will start on July 1st or even a few days earlier. US' July 4th is a national holiday. This year, unfortunately, it's on Wednesday!
