FIRE !
no worries , we put it out ......
a herd of 4 wheelers with water tanks on them squelched it fast ......
you cannot quite even possibly imagine how much fun we had .....
words will not properly deliver the impact of so many lil kids and fish and fireworks and popcorn and snow cones and slushy's and hot dogs and hamburgers and 4 wheelers and rangers and foosball tables and playground things to ride and glo in the dark jewelry and the list went on and on .......
took my grandson with me to visit my friend out west , we took some rods to ketch fish and 30 lbs of sausage to add to the table ,a watermelon or 2 and did it right well to say the least .
the ranch is an alcohol free zone and it is SUPER DUPER family friendly , My buddy sure enough has him a real nice slice of heaven out there .....
We KABOOMED till we couldn't .....for sure fact ....
My grandson never did any fireworks before and at 5 I thunk it's time to light some up , he still won't hold fish though , but we have progressed to petting them ....just saying
told his Gigi when we got home he was hungry at near midnight because Pappy forgot to feed him !
Gigi said well Pappy sent me a photo of a huge hamburger and ruffles and a dr. pepper he said you ate ....
then he said ....whoops I forgot .....
he and I used a float set up about 6 foot deep on a Zebco combo and wore out some slabs , the owner said we needed to fill the fish basket for some of the guests to take home some crappie , and that is what we did ....
we of course got a complaint on the crappie , the lady said they were too big to fit in her frying pan ......
darn the bad luck and we was pitching the 10 inchers and big bluegills back , go figure ....
KABOOM IS FOR SURE THE WORD BTW !
p.s. we did that 4th on the 3rd so we could do another one on the actual 4th ,just saying

Awesome job and sounds like one really good time. The last pic with your grandson holding the sparkler, that's what it's all about. He looks happy. Awesome job

Totally mesmerized, never held a sparkler before , he really really liked it , for sure , but let me tell ya this , he did a big Roman candle by himself and that flat out created an instant firework addiction,,,,Originally Posted by SuperDave336
