Trey! 

 

You didn't mention your wife was pregnant.  Congratulations, dude!  Thanks for your help on Saturday.  It worked out great.

Thanks to everyone as well. I had a great time helping to set everything up and I learned a ton. Sorry about Sunday. We have a series of baby classes at the hospital on Sundays through July.

Arc flash burns.  Sand in your eyes.  Got it bad when I was taking welding school out of high school. ..  Guy next to me was helicarcing a snow shovel (more like building a slab of aluminum) and I caught it out of the periphery for about an hour.  Couldn’t see the next day.  Scared the crap out of me.

I was looking forward to the fireworks display and setting up, ended up with a bad case of arc flash burns on my eyes from

welding on a project.

Sorry I bailed last night - we left right after the show and I got called by our call center for some issues - spent the night on the phone talking a client off the ledge.  We left the hotel at 11 and I never considered you'd still be cleaning up.  Very sorry about that Danny.   

 

Thank you and everyone that helped. Special thanks to Joel for my tinnitus.  Those Gabe Mort were spicy spicy.

I wanted to thank all those who showed up on Saturday to help out.  We got it going because of you!

 

I was the only one from our club who showed up for cleanup this morning but we finished about an hour ago and it is all done and locked away.

 

I especially want to thank those who contributed.  I received about $1000 total from club members. That helped a lot.

 

We shot about 35 cases of shells (retail value somewhere North of $6500) which came from the ATF auction shells.  That means the actual price was more like $2500 or so.  The contributions were significant! Joe must have tossed in a big chunk of change for all the goodies and such.  Heck, we were running a skid loader for about 8 hours - that had to be significant all by itself.

 

Pyros tend to pick shows apart and I wasn't pleased with some of the show but in general I thought it was good.  To support that, we have received a lot of messages and feedback from the audience - many said it was the best they had seen down there.  My wife, daughter and son-in-law (and kids) and neighbors came over and they were happy.

 

I ended up with Ron's torch, a pair of Craftsman anvil cutters, and a boatload of stuff that ended up being mostly Joe's.

 

I'm sun baked, dehydrated, and happy.

 

Dan
