Speaker 1: what you did for New Year's and Fourth of July
Speaker 1: and probably Memorial Day and Labor Day. They would have
Speaker 1: those fireworks stands, you know, and you could get the
Speaker 1: best fireworks because there's no rules, no regulations. You can
Speaker 1: blow anything up and you are fine. And it was
Speaker 1: so especially the mortars. The mortars are the best, the
