Jack of Harts

I had a quiet Independence Day. Stayed at home, rested, and didn’t set off any fireworks. I normally do, but didn’t really feel like it this year. I did however step outside the house to watch my neighbors three houses down set off their fireworks. Nice big ones. Big booms up in the air. And then a big boom on the ground. In the middle of the crowd. I watched them scatter and run as the explosions followed them. With one final explosion going the other way into the middle of the street. Their reaction after the screaming ended was to laugh like drunken fools. At which point, I decided three houses was not far enough away and decided to go back inside for my own safety. Hope you all made it through with your fingers and toes intact.
