4th of July in a Small Town

July 4, 2023 — You may have your Fourth of July celebrations in big cities with dozens of bands, huge floats, soaring speeches and moving memorials, all very inspiring of course, but to me there's nothing like a small town observance where many participants and spectators know each other, parades march along shady town streets, past town commons, and of course fireworks, just not quite as spectacular as New York and Boston.

Amherst, New Hampshire is typical of celebrations of the Fourth in small communities all over America. I wasn't there for the fireworks the evening before, but I captured video and a couple of pages of photos of activities on July 4.
