On my drive down to Madison, the highway was packed with 4th traffic, mostly FIBs who were driving like maniacs. Once in town, Trav and I went to the Great Dane at Hilldale Mall, which is a great bar & grill with it's own brewery. Since Travis has class everyday, however, we had to go back to his house so he could do homework before we were to see the fireworks. While we were waiting, Jessie said we should meet up and get a drink, and I said we should get desserts, so we headed right back to the Great Dane for cocktails and desserts! The dress I'm wearing in the picture is the one grandma bought for my birthday this year, it is super cute and I wish I had a better photo of it. Travis' classmate met up with us there, and we all headed to the Blackhawk fireworks.
Blackhawk is a country club and golf course in Shorewood Hills, and it is where we always went to see fireworks growing up. We parked by Jessie's mom's house, and walked through the golf course. We got there just as they were starting up, so we got a great spot in an open area where we had a good view of the show. They had a ton of fireworks, but we all agreed that they should have dispersed them differently because they would shoot off like four yellow ones, then four green ones, etc. instead of mixing them up. The finale was also kind of awkward, it seemed to have gone off in the middle of the show and then there were still 7 or 8 random fireworks that went off after it. All in all, though, I thought it was a fun time.
