(17,899 posts)They must have lost or misplaced a couple of the big tall rocket tubes. About 20 minutes after the grand finally three more bursts of the big -way up high - big big boom blasts -went off, then no more.
It was 50ยฐ @ 9pm. Much colder weather coming the next two weeks.
Keep warm and cozy.

(18,323 posts)My mom warned me (because I have a noise-sensitive dog) that the casino might shoot off fireworks and sure enough they did. But it was a short burst lasting maybe thirty seconds, followed by a too-long silence of fifteen minutes, followed by two or three random bangs.

(36,651 posts)I was always used to a quiet New Year's Eve and thought that was the norm except in big cities until I spent New Year's on Maui. It was noisy chaos even in the residential area we were in. I'll spend New Year's in Michigan, thank you.
Happy New Year, Debm55!
