Crazy about the 4th, well yes I am. And most of my friends too. Always have loved it. We've spent a good portion of the evening tonight lighting them off, of course my kid got a little pyro in him too. We spend a bit, and the parties go for the 3rd and the 4th. But seeing as I do not have the funds that a couple of my buddies have, what I spend is a lot, but miniscule to them. We have anything from sparklers, to tons of rockets, smoke bombs, mortars, found one stand willing to part with some M-80's, lots of good stuff, and then the big stuff which is made by my airline pilot buddy, who is a pyro, acetelyne bombs made with hefty garbage bags, and some years we've had advertising balloons or a waterbed mattress for the grand finale of a boomb, more like a bomb. Not suggesting anyone try this, but they are the ultimate big boom. I'll try an attempt at getting some pics of Stam lighting some off. I had to mention that my crazy buddy is an airline pilot, just to make ya feel comfortable while flying the friendly skies. Love it. We even got a goofy, and I mean really goofy local parade here, call the Maxwelton parade. I think we'll be hitting the beach while that is going on though.
