Silver Spring MD Neighborhood 4th of July Celebrations & Decorations
July 3rd, 2007 Categories: Silver Spring Neighborhoods
My neighbor Joseph Permetti decorates his home’s exterior for all seasons and the 4th of July is no exception. For the last 5–6 years, I always know what holiday is coming because Joseph decorates the exterior of this East Silver Spring home on Queen Annes Drive. Each year the decorations are different and a little more elaborate. On Halloween this past year, there were crowds of people looking and taking pictures. He says that this coming halloween he has even Bigger plans than last year, so stay tuned for the GIANT 
PUMPKIN house in a few months!
If you are staying in town for the 4th of July, A Good Old Fashioned Celebration that is worth taking in is Takoma Park’s 118th Annual 4th of July Parade and Fireworks. There will also be an event in Wheaton called Wheaton Sparkles with a Fireworks Display at Einstien High School.
I am a big holiday person too. Not been doing it very long, but now that I have two kids, it is soooo much fun! I put up Halloween decorations up while my two year old was taking a nap and when he woke up, his excitment was priceless. It also helps that my second will celebrate his first birthday on Halloween!
