Fox Hill Park

We watched the fireworks at Fox Hill Park last year and this year for July 4th. It’s a bit far from the action but you have a panorama of the city.

There were a bit more folks this year around, presumably because it more people know about it, so there was a nice energy in the park.

Adding to the festivities, the local Las Vegas Tribe decided to have their drum circle on a knoll by the parking lot.

Next to us was a family that tried to have a birthday party at the park, but the day was so hot, apparently nobody came.

I feel for the parents and the kid, but they did seem to appreciate the cosmic compensation of being invaded by a bunch of hippie hand drummers.

Friends are hard to come by in this world, but friendly accidents abound around us.
