The best shows are the "mini-wars" all of my neighbors have trying to outdo each others fireworks displays. I love the smell of campfires and grille's. To me it just screams summer. The whole week has this different feeling to it. The whole area is buzzing.
Don't get me wrong I also love the fact that it ends and things settle down to normal after that week. But it wouldn't be the same without the week around 4th of July. It gives you the opportunity to appreciate the quieter times.

I love it at the Lake around the 4th of July, It HAS to be one of our trips every year!
