Last night the neighborhood went out in our cul de sac and shot fire works.

The group of 40 or so people all agreed that 200 grs of foil wrapped 1Fg is louder that 200 frs of foil wrapped Cannon grade.

Ahh the pleasures of celebration!

My neighbors on one side shot enough off so I didn't have to dig out the mortar.  Traditionally I'll shoot a beer-can full of water almost straight up.  With the wide open top it empties as soon as ti tumbles and floats down from about 75'.  The echo from across town returning from the facing mountain and the following echoes from up and down the valley are memorable!
