Im thinking of having a bon-fire out in the country with friends. I'm not much of a drinker but do enjoy a few on this holiday. It's Summer, its warm, and I'm with friends.
I enjoy fireworks and I do think they ought to be legal to adults. Here in Michigan you are forced to buy pretty cheesy fireworks from the side of the road or in the local Walmart, and the cost is not worth the little enjoyment you get out of them. Yet, I also know, if you really look, and drop your name in the right places, you can find the "illegal" ones and buy them to enjoy at home.
Here in our town they put on a pretty good fireworks display for anyone who is interested in taking on the more traditional family setting with hotdogs, and pop.
Whatever you all do this holiday, my LCB family, I wish you the very best. Have fun and be safe.

Sounds like a nice time PMM...I remember when fireworks were so easy to get, we got a list from the guy at work, he had EVERYTHING!! And it was great...I remember my dad throwing barrel bombs off the front stairs..man those were LOUD..loved it, now we are lucky to get firecrackers.
