So true, Patty,,, we were really very bad. Remember putting those cannonball firecrackers inside a tin can and having it explode and the can flying through the air. LOL.. Yes sparklers, they were fun. I hated when mine didn't light and all my cousins were showing off their sparklers... boo hoo... The noise started at dawn and didn't end until 1 or 2 am. We even set our own fire works in the middle of the street and shot them higher than the apartment buildings. It was fun, a bit crazy too.
