a dollar's worth of fun

It only takes $1 to delight small children. We had company over the weekend, and between the two young visitors (ages 5 and 8) and our own Thing 1 and Thing 2, we had a large time with a box of sparklers. It was fun that lasted for an hour...and nothing caught on fire (except the sparklers!)

Not JUST "sparklers", in the old-school, red-hot-branding-wire sense, but new and improved, three stage sparklers, which first spit and sputtered, then shot out little fireball thingies, then fore the grand finale, flared into the traditional sparkler. All on a wooden stick. What a country!
