    Happy 4th.
    I'd say that's more than neat. That's awesome!
    What drives that; diesel, steam/coal.
    That is cool!

    Personally I'm happy the holiday is over and hopefully all the fireworks have been exploded. It will be nice to get a decent night's sleep again. We're in a rural area but it is amazing how loud the fireworks get and amazing too how many fireworks there are. It's been a nightly thing for too long now.

    It was actually pretty quiet last night regarding fireworks. Just some firecracker bundles and that was it.
