The few days of fireworks would have done our dog in, didn't like the noise, we got to staying home on July 4th instead of seeing fireworks to help him feel safe and of course though we lived where fireworks were illegal other than public displays put on by cities, etc., people still managed the illegal ones and you never knew when those were going to go off. <br /><br />Have fun bowling!<br /><br />bettybettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06323135450742337670noreply@blogger.com
