Went to a 4th of July fireworks show last night. Saw the 1812 overture performed with a live band and real cannons. Tsaichovsky (spelling?) is the only composer I know to write for orchestra and artillery. Very skilled. It was great, but they did the best part of the show first.
Leaving on friday to summit Mt. Baker with my class. Trip report and pictures to follow when I find time.

It's the 1812 Overture, but you're probably thinking the right tune. All you would have to do is celebrate the fourth with us next year and we'll take you to the show.
