I was 40% bored out of my MIND because I have been in a car for 8 hours with only 4 stops , but I also was 60% crazy hyped because we were in Illinois and that meant we were close to Havana the city that my Grandpa and Grandma lived in. Just then I saw the small windmill in their front yard, that when my INSANE EAGER-OMETER was at 100%, so I screamed at the top of my lungs ¨We Are Here We Are HERE.¨
So my mom pulled into the driveway and we started unloading all the bags, will I unloaded all the unstable fireworks with wared, tremblay hands holding up the week …show more content…
I found a firecracker on the ground. I put 2 and 2 together and thought why not light it, it won't kill anybody, and i'm killing 2 birds with one stone because i’m using up my punk and not wasting it and getting rid of a firecracker.

The force from the first shot tipped the boom boom box over, that is when it shot off it’s second shot into the woods and tuned to the left and then into my Grandpa’s garden, then under the trampoline.

But a spark got inside the box and lite of all the others in a big bang to end the day.
