Boomsday 2008

Yesterday Walt and I went to Boomsday in Knoxville.  Boomsday is the largest Labor Day Weekend fireworks display in the country and they absolutely outdid themselves this year.  The fireworks were shot off of the Henley Street Bridge, Baptist Hospital. and the roof of another building.  Walt will probably post the video on his blog or on You Tube.  You can check out the pictures I took in the photo section of this blog.
 
Last year we watched the fireworks from the top level of the parking garage next to World's Fair Park.  This year I booked a room at the Hilton in downtown and we watched from there.  We were on the 15th floor facing the river.  It was awesome to watch from the airconditioned comfort of our hotel room.  The view was amazing, and yes we could hear the fireworks.  At one point the glass was shaking from the "BOOM".  It was so great not to deal with crowds, the heat, or traffic!  We will definitely be getting a hotel room again next year.
