Canada Day Fireworks
There are quite a few events going on this weekend, which is quite natural since it’s Canada Day weekend and Independence Day on Wednesday (US).
A few specific events caught our eye and we wanted to share them with you. And by ‘eye’ I mean that Dan and I share one single eye. We pass it around when needed… like driving.
This is going to be a very busy weekend and we hope to attend all of the events listed below. Nearly every city or town is celebrating their own way. This means no one has to venture far to join in the celebration! Check with your city website if you are unsure what might be going on.
Take some time to embrace some festivities this weekend. We will!
