This is a rarity and a real bargain (50 cents at the moment) - the Asbury Methodist Episcopal Church (read info below pix) and an early First Baptist Church on the same card.

Does anyone know if the location of the First Baptist Church is the same as today's FBC?

...was apparently held at the northern tip of Foschini Park yesterday. It went on from early morning to sunset.

For the anglers' sake, I hope they threw everything back.

Workers complete the finishing touches on the tower's color accents - not bad.

Yesterday, they closed the street to pave over some of the paved-over middle area of the intersection.

Locally, the 4th of July officially ended last night with Maywood's twice-postponed show...........or maybe they were the preliminary ones for next year.

They were pretty good, from the opening barrage at dusk to the explosive and smoky finale.

I don't know why, but I think I got better shots from a mile or two away than I did from Hackensack's.

Hackensack Discussion / Photos: the amazing sunset of the 4th of July

Almost as good as the fireworks:


2879
Here are four Hackensack and two Macy's fireworks shots (you can see the illuminated - and under construction - One World Trade Center on the far right).

If anyone else took fireworks pictures tonight, post 'em here.

Anyone see the sky at sunset? It was almost as good. I'll post that tomorrow.

According to today's Record, Maywood didn't have fireworks last night and rescheduled them for this Friday. Then whose did I see last night, Saddle Brook's?

I'll try real hard not to mess up the town ID of the ones outside my window tonight. ;D
