    The fireworks extravaganzas celebrating America's 236th birthday that you'll see in this slideshow are the country's biggest, best, loudest, most explosive, longest-running, most unusual or most spectacular. But they have one thing in common with the events happening all over America on July 4th: Large or small, they're a celebration of our country, our families, our armed forces, our shared national history, and our great glee in things that go bang.--Valerie Isakova More on Shine: Fourth of July guide to finding free fireworks
