It's a
WAR going on out here!
Yep, 4th of July.
In these parts, there are two kinds of fireworks .. legal and illegal.
The illegal ones are the ones like Bubba makes by taking a toilet paper tube and packing it with gunpowder and sticking a fuse in it. They don't bother me.
The illegal ones are the ones that are dangerous because the people setting them off don't know what they are doing … and glowing pieces wind up in our 70' tall pine trees that surround our house ..
Now, the law says that fireworks can be purchased within the county and set off on the Indian Reservation. But the Indians don't want you setting them off on the reservation .. because they don't want the reservation burnt up.
Now, just because our town is named Puyallup, after the Indian tribe, that don't mean that all of Puyallup is within the reservation..
As the war rages on …. I stand fire watch.
