We spent the 4th at Sackett's Harbor this year, and this was by far the best place we've ever gone for a fireworks show! The scenery was beautiful- lush, and green, and full of blooming flowers, all on the waterfront with a front row view of the bay and Lake Ontario beyond. Oh, and there was room to walk, and sit, and play without running into anyone else's space! We're used to packed lawns so thick with people that you barely have enough room to spread a blanket out. But not here. Not to mention that there's a little ice cream shop a short walk away that the grandparents treated us to. This was well worth the short drive and I hope this will be our new yearly tradition for as long as we get to spend here in New York!
