Wow, fireworks from the eyes and mouth sounds intense. Your description of the distant fireworks lighting up the hills sounds beautiful.

I think my favorite part of firework shows is the time leading up to it. So many people out of their houses, away from their TVs, lying on comfortable blankets in the warm night. Just relaxing and enjoying the summertime. I wish there were more things in the world that encouraged this kind of chill attitude. Too bad all the good vibes disappear when everyone gets road rage sitting in traffic on the way home
