Where will you be watching 4th of July fireworks this year?
When my daughters were young, fireworks were mandatory for Fourth of July. Many residents in Pasadena and La Canada have great vantages for viewing the Rose Bowl fireworks. The CV fireworks show can be enjoyed by most of those in Markridge Estates and other La Crescenta hillside dwellers. The show at Lakeside Golf Club can be enjoyed by many Glendale, Burbank and Toluca Lake households. For those who don’t live in prime fireworks watching neighborhoods or are not invited to a private party, here’s the list of where to catch the best firework shows and events in and around my favorite Los Angeles neighborhoods:
