I wasnt there and havent been for years. That being said I can tell you it was a tough night to do fireworks. There was a very small window in the weather about 8:30 or so and apparently they took advantage of it. Having a lot of fireworks to do ourselves we almost went ahead at that same time. Since we light with torches instead of electronics we opted to wait till the weather passed completely. I am on the eastern side and watching radar we could see that it was breaking up as it passed over the lake. We were about a half hour past our normal 9 o'clock start. Rain increases the danger exponentially. We had 4-5 times the normal misfires which is very scary when you have to clear tubes and reload. Bottom line is dont judge the show by this one year. It was a tough year for 4th of July parties. We had horrible turnout this year but still had a great time. The band had to set up on the back porch instead of the pier and go "unplugged". They were consumate professionals and played on. Some of the younger crowd danced in the sprinkling rain so we had dancing and wet T-shirt contest rolled into one...lol.
