Starting to get all of the cakes fused together with regards to the appropriate cues, ignitor hook up's etc. My neighbor and I hope to finish this task over the weekend. Then when I am on vacation next week, all I have left to do is a little testing with the electronics and then we should be ready to rock n roll come Saturday night! :thumbsup: I CAN'T WAIT!!!!!!!! :extinguish:

sounds like you will have good weather! Do you shoot these all off from in your street? Must be crazy full of fireworks racks on your street.

Yes Sir! Out in the street in the cul-de-sac. We have so much this year I might have to "close the street down" if you know what I mean. :lol: We are expecting around 35 people here. Probably hundred plus when you count the other neighbors and the folks they will have over. :lol: It's gonna be EPIC!!!!! I can't wait!!!!! There will be two bouncy houses for the kids too I am hearing from one of the neighbors.

glad to hear it went well! The wife and I ended up at Club Trio's on their back patio listening to a band Saturday night, and someone further west had a really nice fireworks display going on in the background of the stage. Made for a pretty cool atmosphere.

Nice! In addition to my show, there was another show on another street in our neighborhood that you could see from our house, and they let it rip after my show so there was a good barrage of fireworks for a couple of hours between us both lol
