Fireworks

Ok, so I know its been a while since I have blogged anything... Yes, life HAS been that busy! Just to name a few things.... VBS, Church Camp, Preaching 3 sermons in 1 week, License to Preach exams.... want more??? Preparation for wedding and honeymoon in Oct, preparation for a friends wedding in TN in August, very sick Granny....

So, here it is, the NEW POST!


I really enjoy fireworks. I remember a time when I was younger. My family and I went out to 21st bridge to enjoy the grand 4th of July fireworks display. More than anything, the cool colors and different shapes, I enjoyed the ground shaking explosions. In the past few years, I have been on a mountain top far off watching, which I really enjoy because you can look over the city and see several firework displays at once. However, the ground shaking and booming is not there, so part of the experience is missing. This year, I wanted to go back to 21st street bridge and I did. Although I didn't show it, I was very excited to be there and was really looking forward to the display, but more so the bangs and booms and rumbling under my feet.

A piece of advise: when going to watch fireworks, never set anywhere near cars.

At about 9:30, the 21st street bridge booming started. These shows last about 30 min. And this year for 30 min I got to watch a great fireworks display and listen, not to the booming, not to the banging, and not to the rumbling under my feet, but I got to listen to the oldest uglist car in the parking lot, a mid 90's toyota 4 runner I believe it was, with the loudest most annoying alarm system you've ever heard. Maybe the owner was from the ghetto, maybe he/she was paranoid. But to the owner of the mid 90s toyota 4 runner: NO ONE, NEVER, EVER WOULD EVER THINK OF TOUCHING YOUR CAR!!!!!!!! Why in the world would you have an alarm system on YOUR CAR???? Thank you for half way ruining my first yearback to the booms of the fireworks display....

Next year, I will stay away from all mid 90s toyota 4 runners!
