Kristen and I went with our friends, the Edwards to Louisville for "Thunder over Louisville" at the beginning of May. It is an airshow/fireworks celebration that kicks off "Derby week", and they do it every year. We were there from about 4:00pm to 12:00am and I have to say it was the most amazing fireworks show we have ever seen. They put barges full of fireworks on the Ohio river between two bridges and they go for over 30 minutes. At the same time, there are fireworks going off on the bridges as well. Equally impressive was the number of white trash/carnival people that surrounded us on every side.

The crowds were huge and we couldn't hardly find a place to sit, but lucky for us there was a nice little spot next to some chain smokers. (See- Lady in bottom left of picture)

These faces must be from the unwavering cloud of cigarette smoke that surrounded us for hours.

I can't complain too much though because we did have a ton of fun.
