Milpitas Independence Day 2014 (Part 1)

Independence Day, or Fourth of July, is a federal holiday where Americans celebrate the signing of the Declaration of Independence in July 4th, 1776 which declared the US independence from Great Britain. Many Americans (and non-Americans) celebrate by shooting off and watching fireworks, having barbecues, carnivals, fairs, picnics, and many other activities.  I spent the 2014 4th of July at the Milpitas Sports Center in Milpitas, CA. I took photos of the fireworks, the event, and some scenery. I will be splitting the photos of this event into two blog posts.
