I took this picture on July 4, 2010 at the Old Court House Museum as I was leaving towards the end of the fireworks display in the Yazoo Canal. If it's not too hot this evening and if Bob feels up to it, we may try to go and watch the fireworks again.
Our city surrendered on this date back in 1863 which ended the Siege of Vicksburg in the American Civil War. The Fourth of July was never celebrated here until World War II, because of the surrender of the city on July 4.
