We stayed on our boat on the Charles River for the 4th of July in Boston. Got to hear Martina live while watching her on TV. And Pat always knocks my (Red) Sox off too! |

That had to be a blast! a lot of people don't realize that Pat was vocally trained to be an opera singer. Even though she made it in rock, it still payed off for her. |

After watching the DC fireworks on the TV, we switched to Boston. I wish I'd watched only Boston's. I've never been able to figure why the capitol of the country couldn't do a better job. Boston always does a great job. |

Wonder if it's still happening? Do you will the chopper be there next year? My guess is yes. I'm sure that CBS pays good money for the rights to broadcast the event. I'm going to see who I can send complaints to though. I don't see why they couldn't set up cameras on cranes instead. Boston businessman David Mugar is the driving force behind the event so I'll start there. We were there the day before and saw the rehersal performance which is as good as the show just minus the fireworks. Speaking of fireboats... we stayed overnight on the boat and the next morning we were up before 0500 and saw smoke coming from the fireworks barges. My friend and I hopped in the dinghy and went over to look: http://www.thebostonchannel.com/vide...65/detail.html It took almost an hour for the big tubby fireboat to show up and put out what was left of the fire. On our way back to the boats a Massport catamaran fireboat blasted by us. When we got back my wife who was onboard said it had passed about 50 feet away and before she could do anything the wake hit. My buddy's stern rail smashed down on my Magma grill and then on the next roll snapped it out of the rod holder onto the deck pretty much wrecking it. I contacted Massport and surprisingly heard back from them right away saying to send in a report. We'll see how that goes. |

I took the survey ( http://www.july4th.org/2011_Program/...Feedback_2011/ ) and put this comment in the bottom: "Many complaints from people on the ground about the damn helicopter. Get rid of it, or find a stealth chopper!" Also complained about the number of commercials in an earlier question. Just watch, it'll be much better next year. Hopefully everyone here will go take the survey and bitch about the helicopter. |
