End of 2012 - Set the Night on Fire!

There is not many things better than to set off colored flames and explosions on a deep mid-winter's night, so once mused Eleanor Roosevelt.

Indeed, whether it be New Year's Eve or at Mrs. Roosevelt's urging, that is all the excuse needed for pyrotechnics from sparklers (mostly duds this year) to flaming fountains from Formosa or artillery shells mixed with Roman Candles. They all drive the spirits high culminating in a midnight climax of sparks. light and primal smokes drifting through the oak branches.

Some of the glory from New Year's Eve 2012 in the year of our Lord:
Grant fires off a Roman Candle in front of the Bunk House



Shoot the Moon!





 




 

"Miss Sparkler" 2012

Grant offers the lady a light





When smoke gets in your eyes





Fire Girls - Just wanna have fun!









Ha! You Missed!
"You'll shoot your eye out!" - Eleanor Roosevelt

BOOM
