Yankee Doodle Pops

They have a big hoo-ha for Independence Day at the State Capitol each year. The Des Moines Symphony has a free concert and they have a big fireworks show. They always play the 1812 Overture and the National Guard shoots real guns. Estimated turnout: 100,000!



Of course, it's important to dress for the occasion...



Tonight: West Des Moines Independence Day Parade!
