Good information! Our family is looking forward to the Jax Fireworks Spectacular again this year. Whatever you do (or don't do) I wish all of you a fun and safe Independence Day! Keep in mind the free and confidential "Tow To Go" program sponsored by AAA and Budweiser. If your sobriety is in question do not drive; call 1-800-AAA-HELP and a tow truck will be dispatched to take you and your car home. You do not need to be a AAA member to take advantage of this program that has kept thousands of impaired drivers off the road since it's inception.

You missed one location Madcap ... my front porch here in Arlington ... every 4th, my neighborhood looks and sounds like a war zone from all the illegal fireworks

Great info there.

We're heading down to my friend's in St. Augustine (near WGV). Cooking way too much food (I may wind up in a caloric coma) then setting off our own display. Just didn't want to deal with the traffic getting out of the Old Town area this year since we all have to work tomorrow.
