My wife and I both did, as did another friend.

Among the fun...
2 fireworks shows, a parade, several big box stores, restaurants, grocery stores.
Basically 24/7 from Thursday afternoon to Sunday night.

100% positive experiences and not a single negative encounter.

Yep oc'd to the fireworks, the owner of the establishment where I watched them asked me about it and it turns out he just got his LTCH two weeks ago and we had a nice conversation about it.

With the exception of Sunday I was OC'ing by myself on thursday and Friday, Saturday my wife OC'ed with me.

You don't have to be in a group, it does help to get yourself more acclimated. I must say the first few times I did it was... 'odd' sort of like when I started carrying concealed for the first time. Now it's second nature.

I carried almost everywhere I went openly over the fourth.

Exceptions were when I went to a company 4th of July party for my wife. And when I went to the mall she works at which would have asked me to leave.

Since I do have to go in there every day... I'd rather not cast waves.
