Friday, the 4th of July. Wow.... I think people in America are asked to not light fireworks because of the risk of fires... I remember when I was going out with a vietnam vet, he had been a Sargeant and commanded troops over there. As far as I remember, he served two tours over there. Anyways... He had flashbacks...and we were together once on the 4th of July...and he heard some bangs and booms of fireworks going off in the neighborhoods outside, and he literally went fetal, having terrible flashbacks of combat. Most people don't consider the vets with PTSD when they are lighting those fireworks...it literally sounded like gunfire outside. Anyways, every 4th of July he has to contend with horrific flashbacks... Well, happy 4th, my American friends.

When I was in Florida, there were a lot more private folks with some fancy fireworks. It's a wet state, so the risk of fires is far less there.

My brother and nephew litter the yard up with all their bottle rocket sticks and Roman candles, and I spent an hour walking around picking it up and finding things to turn over and empty water out of where skeetoes breed. Sometimes they are so much like hillbillies and my brother does a good Hank from King Of The Hill. LOL >< Tomasina ChicaWolverina!
