Since I won’t be here tomorrow, I’d like to wish you an early Happy Fourth of July.

There will be fireworks at dusk tonight at the Tunkhannock High School Football Field. It’s raining right now and there is a chance of showers and thunderstorms throughout the evening. Hopefully, they will still go on. If not, the rain date is July 4.

Tomorrow you can check out the fireworks at dusk at Kirby Park in Wilkes-Barre. I’ve spent more Fourth of Julys there than I can remember. If you don’t want to deal with the crowd in the park, here are a few good places I have viewed them from: the Market Street Bridge, the Luzerne County Courthouse Water Street parkade and West Side Vo-Tech.

In honor of the Fourth of July, Pizza Paul will hold his second annual fireworks show at dusk on Sunday, July 6 at the Back Mountain Harvest Assembly Church grounds.

Pizza Paul, actually named Paul Adamchick, is a lifelong Trucksville resident. He spends his own money to pay for the fireworks for the Back Mountain community. As you can imagine, this is a very costly feat. And Pizza Paul could use your help to make sure his fireworks can return again next year. He’s accepting donations through the Back Mountain Harvest Assembly Church.

For more about Pizza Paul and his fireworks spectacular, read my story in The Dallas Post this Sunday.

Make sure you enjoy the long weekend. I know I will.
