Dueling Wands

Went on a date today--mini-golfing with my date and his brother and the brother's girlfriend at Cherry Hill. I won! Go figure. :) We ate dinner at Famous Dave's Bar-B-Que, which was quite delicious, then went and found some fireworks to watch. It was fun.

Afterwards I got to watch some silly young men shoot (relatively harmless) fireworks at each other. It was pretty funny. They shot colored balls of light at each other from what was essentially long, tube-like wands. :) I don't know if they would've appreciated the Harry Potter reference, but that's okay, I only just came up with it. ;) Of course, unlike Rowling's wizards, and more in the style of medieval knights, these guys had plastic shields taped over their left arms, just in case.

Also, all parties remain alive and nothing got scorched, so all is well with the world. ;)

Add in some laundry and dishes, and my Grandparents coming up to help Mom with some yard work (in preparation for Caryn's Utah reception), and you have my day. It was a good one. :)
