Memory of 4th of July

My memory is a blur from this day. the explosions caught me and the Government off gaurd.

Me and my dad on the 1st of july  always go to the snoqualmie indian reservation and get the fireworks that are legal and illegal. the illegal ones are the ones that catches my dads eyes the most.

After we got the fireworks, we always would hide them so my mom would not snatch them from me and my pops.

waiting and waiting then the day finally comes. The day were we celebrate the birth of our country. 4th of Ju-(f-ing)-ly. I do not care what the government say's about the fireworks. they say that big morters and M-80's cause fires but I say NO. only idiots cause fires.

After my dad showed me how to work the grill I heard a POW!! and then a BANG!! from down the street. They were fireworks of course. Just teasing me. we waited 'till 10 o'clock to light the morters and thats when it really started. Our family and friends would light Morters off in the center of our culdesac and small rockets off the side. It looked so Professional. Then after the Morters we set off the M-80's and thats when IT happened. I was hit by a small rocket. I tell you small because they are only 3 inches long. but when they are flipped on there side aiming right at you and launched at 90 MPH it gets scary. I was hit 6 times and had to get stitches for all 6 rockets. I was hit once in the shoulder twice in the stomach one again in the thigh and twice again in the back.

Overall fire works are awesome but its true that they are dangerous
