Fireworks 2022 ---
On July 3, my wife snagged an invitation to the Sycuan tribe's local fireworks show. They preceded the show with a party in their hotel's pool area. The food wasn't all that great (I ate a hotdog, a small bowl of berries and cheese, and a red-white-blue parfait desert, plus a minican of Coke), but she had also managed to get an 11th-floor hotel room with a balcony overlooking the fireworks launch area. They shot off a lot of low-altitude boomers which was appropriate since the party area was right next to the launching ground, and from the 11th floor it was like they were going off right in my face. They only started one little brush fire that the Sycuan FD managed to put out in a few minutes.
On July 4, our new friend Steve from the Viejas reservation invited us over to his house on the reservation to view their show. His house is up on a hill overlooking the broad flatland that makes up the bulk of the reservation grounds. There were a few illegal shows going off from people's backyards and the like before the official show at 9PM. That show must have a good reputation because the roads through and along the boundaries of the reservation were lined with cars like one would expect at an outdoor rock concert. The show was huge - about 20 minutes of continuous rockets and mortars going off. From Steve's front yard, you could see across the valley that there were many cars stopped on the shoulders of I-8 to watch.

How old was Steve? Around 60-61?
Maybe. He said his mother was still alive and pointed out her house down the hill.

I think I went to school with him at Valhalla. I use to hang out with those boys. Fun bunch.
He mentioned Valhalla.
I was just watching the movie The Trial of the Chicago 7 on Netflix. One of the dramatic elements is that some of the defendants gather around a TV set that is showing the list of the soldiers killed that day in Vietnam. The last name on the list that day is Yvon Girouard, from Littleton NH, who was captain of my high school candlepin bowing team. (at 44:57 in the Netflix version)
This was just behind us this afternoon. Our modest abode shows up in some of the wide shots if you know when to look --

The funny man joked that if astronauts were to pleasure themselves in space, they could accidentally impregnate three female colleagues (if they happened to be naked)
