Well Happy Birthday America, and God Bless all who serve this great country. This is always a great time of the year to bring the family, and friends out to see some amazing fireworks. We are in for a special treat this year because here at the Jersey Shore, they have so many locations for us to sit back and catch all the action. Here are some safety tips, according to the National Safety Council.

The 4th is this Thursday, and you down here at the Jersey shore, it’s all about parties, BBQs, and just leaving your issues somewhere else. I love sitting right off the beach and watching those amazing blasts and the awesome colors that light up the sky. So let’s hope you find a spot on this list, that you can get to and have some fun this year.
