I'm starting to really really hate them. As in I'm tempted to start phoning the rcmp and complaining each, and every time they go off.
I don't mind the good pro displays, we go to those where there's music and an actual show, in fact bummed out that the one fireworks show isn't going this year because it's in the mountains.
But the local stores sell home fireworks now and every yahoo redneck moron in town buys them. Today it's been every half hour or so. Usually every weekend there's bang bang bang, half an hour, more noise, till 1 in the morning.
I have one kid who won't go to sleep if she hears them because she's scared. Also have a golden who is quite convinced that someone is tossing a duck for her when she hears the bang and goes ape whining and barking and pacing, wanting to get out and get her bird. And nothing settles her down other than an actual bird, and no, at 1 am not going to take out a bird and go to the park in hopes that she'll be happier with that.
It's not super dry here but still......
