More than two centuries after the signing of the Declaration of Independence, bombs burst through the air Monday night. Beyond the traditional holiday parade hosted in about every community across the U.S., Bloomington residents and guests mixed and mingled throughout a Fourth of July holiday weekend that offered various learning opportunities, a fish fry, and a 35-minute firework show.

It has been 229 years since the Founding Fathers sat together in a room and signed a piece of paper that would birth American democracy, and nothing says happy 229th birthday like good food, fun and fireworks.
