As much as I enjoy fireworks, sparklers are are the only thing I would light up! So, who here has pyrotechnic capabilities?  |

I would definitely light them off if I didn't live in the tinder box that is Southern California. Even if they were legal I would never be able to live with myself if something caught on fire. One of the bigger wildfires in San Diego was set off by a flare gun. It is just too dangerous and not worth the risk.
But I still love watching professional shows!

It is illegal to possess fireworks in our town, as well as in all the neighboring towns.
Nothing makes me more indignant than @ssholes who break the law and set them off anyway. There is absolutely no reason for it.

Our local semi-pro baseball team has awesome Friday night fireworks, with a mega-event planned post-game on the 4th. I love watching! The firecrackers/noisy and smaller stuff that is sold at fireworks stands is not my cuppa tea.

Fireworks are a big deal at our house because it's our twins birthday! We always do a big pool party with BBQ and fireworks at dark!

They are legal here and we go back and forth doing them. I don't mind lighting most things, but DH really gets into it, so I like leaving the show to him. It's rained the last few years, so we haven't made the investment, and it looks like it's going to rain this year, too.

We are lucky that they sell good fireworks here.. obviously not the super gigantic professional ones, but pretty close! Chrysanthemums, palms, fish, etc. |

That's another one I'm skittish about now. We live out in the county, so we allowed - as long as there isn't a burn ban. But we like to go watch the shows. I'm really not into watching my money burn either. LOL!

Our township does a nice display - we can watch right from our driveway which is nice.
DS and DH really enjoy setting them up. We won't be doing any this year but I am sure a few neighbors will.
