FIRE WORKS

YEAH! We finaly got to have our firework show. Kurtis said this has been a weird year for fireworks! This was the first year that they have had to canceal fireworks since any of these guys have been on, and when they did the show last night they had more fire issues than they have every had. The embers were low and they were drifting clear across the freeway. They stopped the firework show at one point because they wind was just taking the embers to far before they were dying out. Fireman were posted all over and were prepared for it, but those dry weeds can go up in flames so fast. But they did a good job and it takes a lot of time to prepare for the fireworks and to tear them down at the end of the show. They sacrafice a lot of time to do this for us. Believe me I know...while everyone else is having their family and friend bbq's they are off getting ready for the big night. Me and the kids just do our own thing. But I am glad they do it. It does make me a little nervous where Kurtis is one of them setting them off. He is right in the action. He says he never gets to see what it looks like becuase he is to close and directly under it. So this year I took some pics for him to see. I wish they would have turned out a little better. I didn't realize I had my camera zoomed in while I was shooting these, but here is what I have.
