July 4th Fireworks

I just got back from seeing the July 4th fireworks at the Rockland Community College (RCC) it was beautiful to watch it not to mention the concert was great, but I have to say if you have been there before you will know that if you don't get there early enough don't plan on getting a parking anywhere close forget about finding a good spot to sit down (on the grass) and watch.

They were playing from about 8:00 till 9:30 then at 9:30 they stated with the fireworks for a half hour straight, it was awesome. But now can you imagine all those hundreds of people trying to get away from this place with only a 2 lane road (one in each direction) and cars parked on both sides of the road (this makes it a 4 lane road automaticly) gosh that's a nighmare, forget about when someone hits another car in the traffic (which happens almost every year) they won't budge until cops come to fill the report (that's makes this a 1 lane road) cars beeping, hunking and people screaming from anger (NY drivers) move... move... move... you get the picture.

Now for those who haven't seen the fireworks this year yet, here is a clip of fireworks from last year at the Baltimore Inner Harbor.

Sara, Don't think Pic's would work as you can see from the video it's hard to see.

Add a major sale at any larger NYC department store announced right after the fireworks, and see what'll happen ;)

Fashionista, good one. I am not sure what people would rather do, either pack up before the fireworks and try to see the fireworks in Manhatten or they will start running right after the fireworks (which that will make it worse).
