Daytime Fireworks Show

What I am talking about is the Bounce Hill Bash, exciting annual event in Spring Hill that just got more exciting with the news of its first ever daytime fireworks show.

It sounds like an excuse just to have fun, and I can't think of anything better. The Bounce Hill Bash is an annual blow-out in Spring Hill, a suburb of Nashville, and, this year, they are upping their game with a spectacular daytime fireworks extravaganza to accompany a host of inflatables and a host of food trucks. The action happens at Fischer Park in Spring Hill on June 7th. Don't forget your lawn chair.

The dog who likes fireworks probably is a good hunting dog too. But, not mine, and not a lot of other dogs on the Fourth of July. But there are things you can do to help your furry kid get through fireworks season without going totally insane.
