For a city where fireworks are illegal there certainly were far too many going off all over the place.  The noise began long before dark and continued well past 1 a.m.

      The fireworks began around here clear back in May, with an overload of them hitting us last night.  I’m so glad my dogs are not afraid of them but I feel so sorry for the dogs that are.  I do wish the idiots that have so much fun setting the damned things off had an inkling of the stress they cause. 

     At least the city, when they do their fireworks display, has the courtesy of stopping at ten at night.  Unfortunately, around here, they will go all night and continue through the entire summer.
