What to do on the 4th of July in Milwaukee? Well, you could go down to Veterans Park right downtown at the lake with tens of thousands of other people right UNDER the fireworks - if you want to arrive 5 hours early. OR you could drive a bit further south to South Shore Park quite a bit later in the day and with much more space. We did the latter with our friends Lisa and Joe - what a fun time.
