So we went out to ring in spring yesterday. Wife and I brought fried chicken and potato salad. John the gopher welder and his lovely wife Mary joined us. We all met up at Southpaw and Joan's farm.
We got the line set and attached all the cannons together with fuse Southpaw got from
www.cannonfuse.com. You can see that in my first video.
We were going to shoot our ring in the spring volley and go have lunch. We ate at 2.
We found that none of the loads from last summer shoot worked very well at 50 degrees. The effect of the lower temperature was dramatic.
We missed the one great photo op! Southpaw can made a gigantic smoke ring!. We all stood there camera's in hand going ooh ah, ooh ah as it slowly drift off over the Sweetgrass hills.
We finally tore the line down at 5PM.
I had so much fun yesterday, that I didn't get out of bed this morning until 9!
We should make this an annual event...gotta get a hold
www.cannonfuse.com and order up some white lightening fuse--1/2 second per foot.
