Many Arial star/bomb/shell fired both for 'Juneteenth' and July 4th evenings with the July 4th activity continuing until about 0430 July 5th! some of the stars appeared to be of the 'professional display' sizes but were set off in local streets, going up several seconds before bursting in great splendor. Red, yellow, white, blue, silver, green, purple, and gold colors involved so the chemistry was far ranging. intermixed were 'bottle rockets' of many sizes, roman candles, fountains of Sparkling Fire and multiple bursts of crackling pops.
All in All a grand impromptu display that was fun to watch from a chair in my driveway.
