If the Liberal Left (commie's) aren't careful we'll have another Forth of July... I hope it doesn't come to that.

I think standing in front of the grill is a nice touch.

It sure has sorta sounded like armed conflict around here the last couple of nights! My closest neighbor usually puts on a big fireworks show but hasn't yet this year. He probably will make up for it tonight. Wish I had all the bucks spent on fireworks just within a five mile radius of the house! Bob

Today is the 53rd observance of what I call our "welding animal nursery." Nothing special planned but I did pick up a few fireworks to enjoy with the neighbor's toddlers. Will get together with local daughter this weekend, and we'll go to a mountaintop brunch at Snowbasin ski resort Sunday. Prosecco and prime rib at 9,000 feet.
You aren't kidding about firework prices. Saw tables full of individual devices priced up to $200 EACH.

I guess I’m an odd one. I think when I was a kid I looked more forward to the 4th of July than I did Christmas. Firecrackers today aren’t like the older ones we use to buy back then, and they are more expensive for sure. I guess I was around 6 years old when I started to set off firecrackers, under my dads supervision that is, I’m 73 now and I still get a kick out of them.

When I was a kid, we had to smuggle fire crackers from Canada. With a little help from our folks of coarse!

That brings back a few memories! My mother was bound and determined to go to the 67 Toronto Worlds Fair. At the time my dad owned his own auto parts store and couldn't go, so mom and I along with my aunt took a bus tour from Michigan to the fair. The fair was great and on the way back I spent a bunch of my paper route earnings on firecrackers, bottle rockets and Roman candles. My Uncle enjoyed good booze and my aunt kind of overdid it buying duty free scotch and a few of the over the limit bottles were packed with my fireworks. Fortunately the customs guys didn't check my suitcase and my smuggling was successful. I used to blame mom and her sister for turning me into a bootlegger at the tender age of 12!😀 Bob

Old neighborhood, with some section 8 housing not far. People who can't pay rent without subsidy spend hundreds making noise and littering the neighborhood. Perhaps such poor decision making is why they can't afford the rent.
