This is a new design and can likely be used only one day of the year. (Although I suppose it could be adapted for Chinese New Year, but that might be a stretch.)



Much of my life I lived in New Mexico and it’s hard not to think of Albuquerque as home, especially with all the moving I’ve done over the last few years. This summer my home state, like Arizona, is threatened with huge wildfires. I can only imagine the threat they pose if you live in the wrong area: there’s no way to know if your life will shortly be turned upside down. So I hope for luck and rain. Because of the dangers, New Mexico’s governor has stepped in, asking citizens to not set off their own and attend public fireworks displays instead. On Facebook, there’s a push to boycott fireworks this year and the conversation is spirited on both sides.



At any rate, I’m hoping for the best: lots of rain. (Although that would put a damper on the public fireworks displays.)

Back to the sculpture design; of course, this sculpture should get red lighting. And one more thing: anyone using MY fireworks runs absolutely no risk of fire whatsoever! Happy Fourth of July!
