4th July 4th

This year is our 4th year here in the US. We very will remembered our travel four years ago. It is heartwarming to note that we are celebrating it with the whole of America.
We missed last year the fireworks in Ohio. Jaz was working then, so we had to content ourselves by watching the fireworks display on TV.
This however was different. We were even kind of confused as to where to go. The whole of Houston area got so many places for fireworks display. Our first option was to go to Alvin, at Alvin Community College. Sensing however, the difference of Alvin from Missouri in terms of population, we opted to go to Buffalo Run Park
Although the walk was long, and the park was not really "parkly", yet we were not disappointed by their threat. While waiting for 9 pm, the city entertained us thourh various booths and concert.
At exactly 15 minutes past 9 pm, the park lights went off and the fireworks display began. It was amazing how the crew got it so synchronized. The color was awesome to behold.
Unfortunately, because that was Zach's first time to watch fireworks display, he was startled by the loud sound. It made him so afraid so as he clung more to me closed eyes.

ADDICTED TO BAKE

 Couch is not the place for an older person like me to watch tv. It only takes a matter of minutes before I sleep. That was what happened to...
