Fourth of July Fun: Where to Watch Fireworks in Westchester
/Hi everyone! Happy (upcoming) Fourth! Are you celebrating the weekend before or after? Or maybe just a quick Wednesday holiday then it's back to business as usual?
It's always fun to watch the Macy's fireworks, but between the commute, the crowds, the limited space and facilities, and the late hour, it's not the best place for us #toddlermoms.
