Blankets and beach chairs dotted Ocean Park Friday morning as fireworks revelers marked their spots for the annual display.

Coolers unpacked, sweatshirts donned, the crowd listened to old favorites, marches and standards played by the Vineyard Haven Band while they waited for the big show.

After the lights in Ocean Park went dark, the sky over Nantucket Sound was ablaze with pyrotechnics of all colors and variety, and with a short delay for safety reasons, the finale was a late exclamation point.
