Boom Boom Room - No Evacuation Required

We had a nice surprise this July 4th: we could see the show from our couch and I'm not talking about the television!  The barges must've been in a fractionally different place from last year.  Go figure.  Here's a short clip from our vantage point.  While we could only see the top half, we were rather content watching the fireworks through the window and then on TV 5 seconds later (from the comfort of our air conditioned living room).

Jake and I both really enjoy this time of year.  These long summer days promise sunlight during our night walk.  This pic was taken at 8:30p(!) using my 360 Panaroma app.  I added the border with Pixlromatic (vintage Autodesk).

In case you don't recognize it, this is a shot of the Charles River looking towards MIT.  This is our go-to spot because it's so close to home.
