Believe it or not fireworks at the 4th of July in Mesa are pretty miserable. We have found if we go to Payson which is about an hour and a half that it makes for a much more pleasant experience. We had BJ's parents cabin in Pine, AZ for a while,m but since it was sold we don't have access to it. This year we took a little trip and stayed in a hotel to watch the fireworks in decent temperatures. Payson's firework display is at at local park with a lake it is very beautiful. We noticed this year that after it got dark there were bats flying over the water eating bugs. It was really cool.
I have found that no matter where I am I have 3 kids gravitate to me like magnets. So loved!
