A 4th of Julius

One man's patriotism is another man's obnoxious behavior.  So it goes with fireworks.  Some of the younger guys in Pam's neighborhood set up an insane amount of fireworks this evening.

All of the cases that look like 24 packs of soda are some big boom fireworks.  The guys took it upon themselves to block off the street with some traffic posts that were stolen from a nearby road construction site.  As soon as the sun went down, the time was right for some large explosions.  We didn't watch much of the fireworks being launched from the strip.  On the contrary, I wouldn't be surprised if the strip watched us.

When it was all over, there was a huge mess left behind.  Being the fireworks bum that I am, though, I didn't stay to clean it up.  

All in all, it was a great show.  Being that I contributed nothing to the festivities, I feel like I got way more than my money's worth.  Happy 4th of July!
