Already started the booming here last weekend. Sat around for a couple hours watching young kids lean the difference between Grey and Green fuses the hard way..
Ah, the fun of being a grandparent on the 4th...

I haven't bought any fireworks in years. No more kids young enough in the family anymore.
Used to, before the prices went insane, buy the bottles of black powder and have fun with that. Long lines in the streets and watch it zoom along. Or one of my favorites. A large coffee can with magnesium shavings and a healthy serving of powder in it. A fireball 30' in the air with white sparks shooting all over. The kids seem to like it better because it's much quieter. The noise always seems to be what scares the little ones

We've got a new neighbor about 1/2 mile down the road that did a display last year that rivaled our township's. We did our own small displays for years when the kids were in their teens.
Never bought fireworks in my life...
@kidturbo I am still seeing cicadas and june bugs. Such is the life of a Texan.
Hung this TV up in the shop, how am I supposed to get stuff done now?
Ignore my overloaded bench...

Baby driver. Haven't even seen the movie but it's still recognizable.
No parking but obviously stuff is being parked there.

Like the mason jar storage. I got that exact same aluminum step stool/ladder at work. They are pretty awesome if you don't need to get too high

fireworks have been nightly since last Friday around my place. I can take the SXS out and watch fireworks all weekend from the hillbilly’s blowing stuff up. 
@2004LB7 Love Baby Driver. The mason jar storage is nice but it is nerve wracking to remove one and put it back. I have also broken quite a few.
The No Parking is a University of TX PD sign lol, I have an idea where it came from... Not sure where it's home will be.
@TheBac It is my dad's 1970 Grand Prix.
