Hey Gang-

Going to be in town next on the fourth of July, and staying for a few.

Never been in Vegas on that day. Has anyone? Do they do fireworks on the
Strip? I have illusions of relaxing up in Voodoo Lounge, sipping a dirty
martini and watching fireworks.

Ahhhhhhhhhhh....

I think the Strip only has fireworks on New Year's Eve. You may be
able to see some distant fireworks at a public park or school field.

The Triple-A 51's are out of town on the 4th, but on the 3rd they host
the Fresno Grizzlies (affiliate of S.F., so it's a Dodgers/Giants
battle by proxy). Fireworks after the game at Cashman Field.
