Leary Field

This year we went to the Waltham 4^th of July fireworks for the first time. Like all town fireworks it’s crazy driving in and out. Stopped to ask a cop directing traffic — who was very nice and gave us some parking ideas. Found a good spot to park and brought a blanket with us. 5 – 10 minute walk; grabbed a spot of grass; and enjoyed some nice fireworks. Walking out of the field with thousands of others — through 1 exit took a while, but no big deal. We’ll be again next year.

This place is my favorite place to go for the fireworks on the 4^th of July. Doesn’t compare to the ones in Boston, but when I feel like staying in my town, this is where I go. It’s always so lively and so much fun going with family and friends.
When I was in high school, I would go here for the football games which were also a lot of fun. I wish they held more activities here! But I guess that’s what the common is for.
