I don’t know about you, but the Fourth of July always sneaks up on me. It seems like the kids have been out of school for like, a day, when all of the sudden we’re hearing the familiar booms and fizzles of fireworks in the night sky.

We’ll be in Boston for the Fourth this year - always a good time, but we’ll kind of miss our usual gig, which is to hang out on our rooftop deck and watch almost every single North Shore fireworks event. But for all my friends out there, I thought I’d give you the lowdown on where to go this year. Have a blast!
