Happy Victoria Day

A short one tonight.  Steven and I went out to the lake today
after a wonderful meeting with a client.  Then tonight
we drove around trying to find fireworks.  It's Firecracker
Day, or Queen Victoria's birthday.  

We both love firecrackers, but hadn't had dinner when we
headed out.  Our local park had some, and someone
just north of the park was creating a gorgeous display.
But when we came home some kids were letting off the 
most beautiful firecrackers in the schoolyard across the
street.

Just amazing, and although it was well after 10 p.m. on
a school night, a small crowd had gathered across the 
schoolyard.  We were on our own with a woman named
Harriet, who also loves fireworks, and we were very
happy.  The display was amazing, delightful and
exciting.

Have a loving your life day.
