2018 Montgomery Township United States Independence Day Fireworks

My mom came up to visit just in time for our annual attendance at the Montgomery Township United States Independence Day Fireworks at the Montgomery High School. We've attended the fireworks since my kids were in elementary school. The colours are spectacular. I love it when the right combination of colours equals the red, white and blue of the USA flag.

In the beginning, it was just me, Bhavna and the kids but over the last few years, we’ve been joined by Bhavna’s family and friends. Our little blanket has grown to a circle of blankets.

Changing Seasons June 2017

As I stated in posts through the month, it rained in May. Then it rained much more in June. For most of May, I photographed wet things under the softbox of an overcast sky. For most of June, I shot whenever I could. These images are all from various trips during June. Some of them are from other posts from during the month.

Chairs, Green, Rutgers Gardens
During one rainy weekend in June, I dropped my son off to orientation at the Rutgers Honors College and then roamed the grounds of the Rutgers Gardens until he was ready. It rained the entire time.

The Montgomery Township Independence Day Fireworks at are held each year at the Montgomery High School. It's a big deal for the town drawing a few thousand people. My kids have always enjoyed playing on the lawn with their friends and then returning to sit with us right before the fireworks display starts.

The Changing Seasons Monthly Photo Challenge is a blogging challenge by photographer Max "Cardinal Guzman". Each month I will post one or more photos that I think represents the month.
