All consumer fireworks - including sparklers - are banned and illegal in DE. I thought a lot of states banned them, but the only others that do, are NY, NJ, and MA. Of course that doesn't stop people from going to a neighboring state that sells them, and bringing them over the state border and to their house. My son used to do this. You can get fined if caught, but I don't know of anyone that ever reports their neighbors setting them off.

I'll take a helping of those ribs, please. Any coleslaw available??? - and how about a lemonade to wash it down?

I'm sticking close to home and will watch the fireworks on t.v. There are fireworks in town, but the mosquitoes are terrible this year - no way I'm going out and get eaten alive...........

To those of you venturing out to celebrate - be safe and enjoy!
