Big Show


I can't take credit for this photo, but I really like it. This was taken by my friend Bud who was also the captain last night for a late evening trip on Lake Travis. One of the popular dock up bars, Carlos and Charlies, sponsors a huge fireworks display on July 3rd every year. (well except last year when it poured everyday). We left the marina where Bud's boat is docked and headed out to a cove to settle for the show.

For about fifteen to twenty minutes we were treated to a fantastic display of fireworks over the water. There was a barge in the lake that the fireworks were launched from. It was quite a show and the sound from the explosions echoed through the hills around the cove we were anchored in.

It was a great night. Good friends, good beer and a big show in the sky.

Happy Fourth of July everyone.
