Fireworks

Lulu and I had a great time at the fireworks display last night. This is a volunteer effort put on by some people in Glacier -- donations were collected and tribal fireworks stands were visited. Money changed hands. Some of the "bargain" fireworks were a couple years old so the charges would fire but the payload would only get a few yards out of the mortar before detonating -- people were scrambling. Lulu and I were both covered with bits of clay and paper as they drifted earthward. We moved our chairs back 50 feet when she got something in her eye (she is OK). The display lasted for a good 90 minutes -- a lot of fun and a fabulous Independence Day. Now it is time to stop patting ourselves on the back for what happened 236 years ago and get to work to restore our Republic to what it once was. Posted by DaveH at July 5, 2012 9:20 AM
