Finally found a couple of parades going on locally, Lexington and Concord both seem to have something decent going on and Bolton have a tiny affair going on.

Not much advertising for them though and not much in way of fireworks, which is a bit of a shame.

You would hope at least they would have something good going on

We went to a parade in, I think, Billerica, MA, with friends a few years ago. It was not too bad. There were a few little stalls with food and drink and some other stuff. There might be a firework display at Devens, which might be a bit too far for you Bob.

That's what they've got going, not a bad spread

Lincoln, is another town around doing something, but $20 donation on entry to the town park to take part

Never heard of Devens, quick google, that the one near Havard and Boxborough? Not all that far, half hour or so.

We had our local Parade on Saturday, always lots of fun as I know almost everybody in our little town, including the dogs.

I think I might do yard work today.

The Red, White and Dead Zombie walk was on Saturday, I am counting that as my 4th July celebration. At least it was my exercise for the week.

Saw highlights of the parade where we used to live, thanks to following someone on twitter who lives there

The kids both slept in this morning, to lazy to bother wake them up, so didn't go out to the parades...went for a walk instead

I wish I lived in a place where the climate was such that I had to wear a coat on the 4th.
