Thanks Cor! Have a nice Wednesday! ;)

I hope those of us in Colorado will refrain from using fireworks entirely. It's too dry to be playing with fire.. Though I was flying from LAX to DIA this evening and it was quite a show. Lots of nice displays going on last night.

Nicki had a blast with fireworks of a different sort this morning - shooting the rifle she will use for feral hog hunting. We got to the range around 9:45 and it was over 80 degrees F beneath the canopy. By 11 the temperature had increased so much that mirage was becoming noticeable at 100yds; time to pack up and head for cooler areas...like under the air conditioner:

May it be to the world, what I believe it will be, (to some parts sooner, to others later, but finally to all,) the signal of arousing men to burst the chains under which monkish ignorance and superstition had persuaded them to bind themselves, and to assume the blessings and security of self-government. That form which we have substituted, restores the free right to the unbounded exercise of reason and freedom of opinion. All eyes are opened, or opening, to the rights of man. The general spread of the light of science has already laid open to every view the palpable truth, that the mass of mankind has not been born with saddles on their backs, nor a favored few booted and spurred, ready to ride them legitimately, by the grace of God. These are grounds of hope for others. For ourselves, let the annual return of this day forever refresh our recollections of these rights, and an undiminished devotion to them.

From Thomas Jefferson's Final Letter, declining an invitation to attend the 50th Anniversary of the Signing of the Declaration of Independence due to failing health.
