On the shore of a lake in the great Granite State

We spent our July 4th in New Hampshire at the mighty Lake Winnipesaukee this year. (The Native American name Winnipesaukee means either "smile of the Great Spirit" or "beautiful water in a high place.") After a day of swimming, wiffle ball, and death defying stunts, we took a 9 p.m. light speed boat ride to catch a glimpse of the fireworks. Daniel laid back in the bow and took a thousand pictures of the show while the rest of us yelled, "grand finale" over and over and ate New England clam chowder. His half hour vow of silence paid off. Enjoy his wonderful out of focus kaleidoscope set here.Dark soundtrack:MP3: Human Bell - Hymn Amerika
