Walton County, along with several other counties in NW FL, have burn bans and if a person, who intentionally starts a fire which gets out of control, will have to pay for all charges related to extinguishing the fire. This could be in amounts in the thousands of dollars very easily.

I believe the enitre state of Georgia and the state of Alabama are both under burn bans, too. Please be careful!!!! This is my home and I have enough problems to worry about without you shooting fireworks. It is bad enough that you litter the beach and the water with your trash and fireworks debris, but I sure as heck don't want you burning down my house and killing my dogs. :sosad:

Don't blame you there. We worry about that also. We did have rain last Saturday, and some around the middle of the week, but we still are below for the month and year. Alot of pines around through here also. Very dry here!

Since the 30-A link is old, and has Big Daddy's on it and the Butterfly Bike and Beach Rentals, does the Butterfly Bike and Beach rentals still exist? Apparently whoever is in charge of updating website stuff there isn't doing so! Sounds like our computer tech guy!

Oh well, just trying to be helpful since I was just mainly looking for ones near where she was.

That's sweet of you to want to be helpful but businesses change so much in SoWal--opening, closing, moving, etc--that's is really best to offer information based on personal and recent information. I wouldn't rely on info gathered from websites too much, because as you've found, they're not always updated on a timely basis.

As for the topic of this thread - probably not a good idea to shoot fireworks from a bike. :lol:

PVC pipe? we just lit the bottle rockets and threw them at each other.

SJ, I noted family fun packs of fireworks for sale at Watercolor Publix. Nothing too deadly, but even the sparklers are risky now. :bang:

Yes, I was disappointed to see them still on the shelf on Sat am, because I asked the manager to consider removing them completely last week due to the dry, dry season we have. Tonight we finally received a hard 4 minute shower, but as dry as we are, I don't think it helped much.
