A New England 4th of July Parade

>In the town of Bridgewater, Massachusetts, I had the pleasure of revisiting the 4th of July parade that I enjoyed as a small child.  Due to restricted town budgets, this year represented a regional parade and firework display.  For some historical background, Bridgewater was settled in 1650, yes, 1650, the house I grew up in was built in 1739, which was well before the signing of the Declaration of Independence in 1776.  So yes, there is a lot of history in this small town of 25,000, and hopefully my photographs will display a New England style parade in 2010.
