TOD: Most of the 4th of July of my youth were spent going to parks for free fireworks shows. My favorite July 4th was when we spent most of the day at Brophy Pool swimming, and then went to the Palms Theatre to see "The Unsinkable Molly Brown" which was a nice trip to movie heaven for me. As we took my grandparents home after the movie, we saw some fireworks in the distance- always a treat as a kid, and even now. We stopped at the Carnation Ice Cream Restaurant and got "Red, White and Blueberry" ice cream cones (again a treat not usually within our budget).
