Fireworks in my backyard by Barbara Edwards

Our house is the last house on a dead-end road

that borders Henry Park. The annual fireworks

show is fired from the Fox Hill Tower, the

highest point in town and less than  three hundred

feet from our home. To say the least it is

spectacular. The explosions are right overhead

and it feels like you could reach up and touch them.

We practically recline in our chairs to watch the
Watching the show
show.

As a safety measure the local fire department

has crews placed at each danger point. We have

one at the end of the road and they keep watch

during the show. All their equipment is ready to

use.

Ready for anything!

Ready for an emergency.

Spectacular finale!
 The display continues for 45 minutes.
After the show, the firemen patrol the property for embers.
Doing their job. Thank you for your service.
