RE: Smoke gets in my eyes

We will be in the mountains so I am hoping not only are people in my
neighborhood going to be cautious (HAH!) but I sure hope no one up there
decides it would be fun to light up the forest. It doesn't do any good
to ban them here though. You can go up one of the hills and see rockets
going off all over the valley. Huge fireworks too, like in the
city-sponsored displays, not just little ones. I have no idea where they
come from - Mexico I guess, or other states where they're legal.

I am freaked out about July 4th and fireworks.  Really, the state should

just ban them outright this year.  I'll be in Seattle and I home my
neighborhood is sane about the whole thing while I'm gone.
