Last couple of years, the cops have done a good job of getting folks out. You also have the advantage of dealing with azzholes instad of half drunk azzholes like you do at Solomons.

When did they become only half drunk? Dam. I guess it has been a while since I've been out.

That's a really good idea.

In addition, there are no trees. And from where Bolling is located, it is adjacent to Haines Point where the fireworks are displayed. And mucho police are around. One of the SP's would not let me light sparklers last year. Now that's security!

The River Concert had fireworks last night and it was my first time trying to take pictures. The fireworks weren't very spectacular, but my pictures turned out ok...I was pleasantly surprised. Here are my best ones
