I never gave it much thought, but this year it hit me that 4th of July is probably the biggest day in Oak Harbor. Thanksgiving weekend is another big one where a lot of friends are in town, but on the 4th of July I know I’ll see the expected friends but I’ll also see people I recognize from high school and kids in high school now that I recognize from family house parties when they were a couple feet shorter and chasing each other around with plastic swords. Last time I took pictures of the fireworks at City Beach was in 2006. I really liked how the pictures turned out this year, in particular this shot is one of my favorite pictures that I’ve taken.
