I think we upset the guy at the fireworks caravan earlier,either at our modest purchase (which is probably more fireworks than either of us have detonated this decade),or with our Britishness.I will say,tho,that caravan we went to had enough gunpowder products to un-nerve a British Parliament.
Then its taken us 3 tries to find a Beer shop.
Luckily theres some waste ground behind the parking lot at our Motel.The festivities will commence later.
