We decided to check out the lake at Avondale Estates and it was a lovely evening as well. Probably back to Decatur next year, though.

After years of being on the Square helping with the event, I decided to tour around the City to see all of the different viewing locations I’d heard about for years. The Agnes Scott greenspace was packed as was the front lawn and folks turned the rail road right of way into a version of a drive-in movie lot with cars lined up. Actually all of the spots that folks have listed were crowded — and we thought the square was packed! Looks like we need to take our crowd estimates multiple by five.

Anges Scott as well. The sprinklers made for an interesting time this year ….

It’s fun to enjoy the view from the top of one of the nearby parking decks, but there’s a downside to being very close: the smoke. As an aside, I really wish the competing fireworks organizers could get in sync so that all of the displays don’t happen at once around the metro area. It would be great to be able to watch them all in sequence, but I suppose everyone wants to start and finish as early as possible.

We also hit the green space next to Agnes Scott. That has been our favorite spot for the last several years.
