Very cool! I can't believe you guys can't get sparklers in CA! We can still get them in IL but they aren't as good as the ones we had when I was a kid!

Welcome to DPS....great shots. Back East where I use to live we had a huge selection of fireworks, although they were outlawed, they sold them. Use to go out in the field and set all kinds of them off. Now I live on the West coast and the fireworks we do have are horrible. Everything is outlawed because of how dry it is and fire hazards.
