Well, since our family is outa the borg now, we can do all the things dubs can't so fireworks on the 4th is something fun to do.
Our state lets us fire off aireal fireworks now (legally). Among other things, we bought a small kit that had a couple of mortar tubes and 12 mortars. They were a great time last night. Light the fuse, step back a good ways and wait for the thump. A few seconds later after launch the sky is filled with an explosion of light and sound. Red, blue, green, and white showers in various patterns. So pretty. Just like real professional fireworks only smaller.
What fun it was for our son to be able to have access to a bunch of fireworks for the first time. He got a kick out of everything.
I'm so thankful that we left the borg when we did. We are starting to get our lives back.
One firework at a time.
