Never Too Early…
For me, the Fouth of July is my Christmas. One thing is for sure, I like to blow stuff up. It’s never too early to get started on those Fourth of July projects. Last year, I invented the U.R.L. – not uniform resource locator, but ULTIMATE ROCKET LAUNCHER!! It was loads of fun to build. What more could anyone ask for than a 180 degree rotating rocket launcher? [pic1] [pic2]
This year, I have another project in the making. It’s an aerial shell launching device. Using plans from Pyro Universe, I plan to make a modified version of their mortar rack. I have always wanted to have a spectacular show, with huge finale. I think I’m getting close.
For more photos of last years URL project and other miscellaneous Fourth of July pictures, click more below.

Daughter, Gaby – she was almost two here.

The loot on the famous "turkey couch." A free couch given to us that has phesants on it, not turkeys. My wife still hates it.
Gaby’s checking out the goods.
I highly recommend "Excalibur" from World Class Fireworks. A very good aerial shell.

Our broken A/C. Imagine Kansas. Imagine mid to upper nineties. Imagine how much that sucked. I still haven’t fixed it.
