Fireworks!

I had a good fourth. Buddy and I were lounge lizards at the pool for awhile. Cletus grilled. What could be better! And it is nice to live out in the county where you can set off your own fireworks! We have quite a few neighbors who just live for this day!! So we never have to go further than the driveway to see an amazing show. One neighbor must have set off a grands worth of mortars. And of course, we had two jumbo assorted packs of our own. Tdawg was in charge of the show for the first time. He set the dead grass we call a yard on fire twice...ok, so it was just smoldering. Not his fault, it has been ninety plus degrees for twenty days in a row with little to no rain. I did have to retrieve some burning embers from the neighbors' yard. I was a little panicky when one of the embers bounced down the neighbor's roof. It was pretty exciting when Tdawg lit an artillary shell and it imploded in the driveway. He realized later the he had it upside down! Buddy was mesmerized by the sparklers and roman candles. A good time was had by all!
