The Good, The Bad and The Ugly

No, I am not talking about hair with the increased humidity in the area.  I am talking about Utah's New Firework laws.


The Good
-Two holidays in July in the state of Utah to use fireworks
-Ability to watch everyone else fireworks for free over the valley
-Maybe next year I should sell fireworks for extra money
-So pretty and awesome
-Create your own show of awesomeness.

The Bad
-Listening to fireworks at all hours of the night for two nights in July
-Increased activity at hospitals and urgent cares
-Lack of clean up
-Improper use, I think they should be licences or permits like they do for driving, hunting, etc...

The Ugly
-Listening to fireworks a week before and a week after the two holidays.
-Finding a bottle rocket in my backyard
-Fear of my house burning down because my neighbors won't use a large parking lot instead.
-The veterans of my neighbor are having flashbacks.
-Forest fires-Where is Smokey the Bear when you need him?

Seriously

Alright, apparently somebody in driver's education is teaching that is perfectly OK to turn left while someone is turning right (as if they have the right of way.)  Guess what, it is not!  If we were in England, it would be correct because they do things opposite, like driving.  The person is who is turning right has the right of way, not the person turning left.  (the person doesn't have a green arrow either.) 


I am just saying-STOP IT!  Cars turning right don't wait for the car turning left, not safe either.  honk, do something, take the rules of the road.

P.S.-I would also like to ask the people that really only car (turning left) is supposed to go through a yellow/red light.  NOT THREE OR FOUR!

I would like to live to see another day!

Summer Retreat

So I flew back to Utah with my east coast niece and nephew, we arrived at my house (they had never seen), the firsty thing they said was "It looks like a summer retreat!" 

That made my day.  I am a summer retreat for all Bartholomew grandkids.  Cho-Cho cousin camp starts this week.
