I found a spot in the park just down from the light industrial area, just off South West Drive (thanks Lacy for the tip on location … awesome spot!!!) to set my tripod up last night for the fireworks.

July 1st is Canada Day, and 2007 marks the 140th anniversary of Confederation in 1867. In many ways, I’ve grown up and aged with Canada’s second century … I was born in Canada’s 99th year …
