I am in southeast Texas.. Fireworks are banned for hundreds of miles around here.... only professional displays were allowed for specific towns
KBMT-12Also, we are officially 21.45" below-normal for rainfall this year and then you also have to add the 13.65" we did not receive last year. So, as of today you could say that we are 35.10" below-normal for 2010 and 2011!!! ________________________________ From: Mark Strassler <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Sun, July 3, 2011 11:20:02 PM Subject: Re: [Chihuahuas] Fireworks If I keep the door close it is OK. They just ended the show at 6th & Kipling, but that is way south of me. Most of what I hear are in the neighborhood, which is actually illegal in the city. I am surprise to hear that they are even allowing any in Texas with all of the wild fires. Colorado has a few wild fires going in in the mountains and along the NM border but the only bans I know of are in the cities (but you can still sell them).

Maybe they did all of it last night. One of mine ignored it, one looked up every time one went off but wasn’t scared and one tried to burrow under me trembling. Sandy From:[email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Joan Croft Sent: Sunday, July 03, 2011 8:38 PM To: Joan Croft Subject: [Chihuahuas] Fireworks Last night there were fireworks going off. Dolly & Desi were both barking, but Desi was so scared that when I walked by the recliner chair he jumped up on me so fast and was so scared…I thought he was the one that could tolerate anything. I don’t know if there are any organized fireworks shows tonight…I am hoping not. We are having a pretty strong wind right now and now that I look towards the window, I see that it is starting to rain a little too. I’ve not been having the best of pain free the last several days. I have some pretty severe muscle spasms that started on Friday around my hip, then the next day it was up from the hip until about waist level, and then today it is from my hip going down the leg, across my lower back and then some in the waistline area. I went to church then took my meds, an hour later I was in bed taking a siesta. I slept for four hours and now I am going to try to stay up until it is time for meds again. So, I really hope that there are no fireworks tonight, and if so, that I can just sit in the chair with Dolly & Desi and calm them and not strain my muscles. Happy 4th to all of you and your families. Thank you to any of you, and/or your family members that have served our country in the military. Joan, Dolly Dee & Desi Lou I
