Fireworks


We always hit up the stand before San Felipe.

Going down the other side for a change. Any places between Ensenada and San Quintin?

Living under a thatched roof with 2 dogs taught me a lot about fireworks and the thoughtless people who seem to like them.

My two dogs freak out, as many do, when fireworks go off. The busiest time for San Diego animal control because of lost dogs that have bolted is 4th of July weekend.

Forget the fireworks.

There are a couple of shops on 2nd Street (the shopping street) in Ensenada that have signs up.

Actually it is Calle Primera (first street), where all of the "tourist shops" are located

Bajaguy you are right. I usually say "the second street from the harbor", when I describe it, thanks. The firework are on that street and there are signs.

Will do. I'm envisioning them not be near as good as the ones in San Felipe though.

For years I did avalanche control at a Ski area near Anchorage. I had the training, and authorization to go purchase ammonium nitrate based explosives, blasting caps, fuses and igniters.

Best job I ever starved at!

Paying for their Sins


I saw in the newspaper where a stockpile of Fireworks went BOOM in TJ.

Killing 14.

That's Life.

Every once in awhile, I would see those on the beach in Percebu get their "just deserts", though (unfortunately) no fatalities.

The BEST I personally witnessed was an imbecile with a beer bottle in one hand setting off M-80s near his camping spot with his wife yelling and their infant screaming its head off. After a number of them, he was leaning over and suddenly BOOM !

HE SCREAMED. He grabbed his arm and was running around in pain. THEY quickly threw everything into the back of their vehicle and roared off.

Presumably, to seek medical care in SF.

With a smile, I said to my wife "that DOES give you a warm feeling, doesn't it" ?

ONCE in awhile, people get what they deserve.
