So I finally jumped on the Instagram wagon and instantly realized how awesome the site is, especially since it was Independence Day weekend.
My “feed” was loaded with awesome pictures of people rocking out, grills loaded with food, and fireworks exploding.

While I wasn’t able to make it to Portland’s fireworks celebration on Saturday night- I was able to search through Instagram, as well as Twitter and Facebook, to pick out my favorite pictures from the weekend.
