It was hyped as the biggest fireworks display in SC history. I was hoping it lasted more than 2 minutes. We sat and waited for a very long time. We got to our spot about 7:00p, and had a picnic. It was good that we did too, because the whole time we were there, people were streaming into Reedy River’s Falls Park. Downtown Greenville is very beautiful. God covered the face of the sun with clouds and gave us a little breeze and threat of sprinkles while we waited. That cooled off the 96 degree day.
The fireworks were well worth the wait…think 3 grand finales and you’re getting close. Chrissy and I can’t remember seeing a better display. The boys loved it! At first Lincoln was pretty put off by it. He wanted to hide his face, but he really wanted to see what he was hiding from at the same time.
This class is off to a good start. It promises to be very helpful. My primary oral project is Friday. It’s a 30 minute book report on a book that I’ve only slightly started reading (right now it’s almost 1a on Wed.). If I have time, I’ll build a PowerPoint presentation for it.
It was the quietest day I’ve ever had on BJ campus. All the offices, snack shop, bookstore, library (part of the day) were closed. Only the classes met, and lunch was served to the students and teachers. I think they had to grab-n-go supper at lunch. The construction workers were not there. It was weird.
I’m babbling and need to go to bed.
