early 4th of july rocket incident
hey anyone, i forgot to add a journal entry yesterday thanks to all the excitement. we were at my uncles trailer lighting fireworks. well, we decided to light up a 12pack of rockets, trouble was we putit on a board that was just barely big enough. the first 8 rockets fired off no problem, but the ninth rocket knocked it off balance a bit. before all this started happening, i was daydreaming, thinking it would be cool if the rockets shot in different directions at the ground. then suddenly, rocket 10 shot towards my uncles truck, right between my sister and my cousin. it bounced off the truck and landed right in front of the trailor, exploding there. well, my other cousin freaks out, juming out of his folding chair and making it inside the trailor before it blew up. then rocket 11 went off in the other direction. and at that point, i decided to run. i ran around the back of the trailer, only to be intrduced to rocket 12 ten ft. to my right. luckily, it had landed in a pile of leaves that muffled the blast. when i came back around to where everyone was at, they were still sitting there shocked by what had hapened.
