Not without damage |
The past week or so there were a couple articles floating around about how to take pictures of fireworks and lazily I didn’t read any of them.
Fortunately I learned tonight that our camera has a special “fireworks” setting. Of the dozen or so pictures we took tonight these two were the best.
Our duke in hazard
Some bummer news yesterday. Our middle son had to come home early from his trip to the lake with friends because they were lighting off fireworks and one of those bees shot up his leg and got caught in his pants giving him second degree burns down his leg (and burned up his pants too). He was not with us at the time of this accident. He’ll be alright, but probably have a nasty scar.
There is a picture (warning: it’s not pretty) of his burned leg for chicks who dig scars (that’s what our youngest son told his brother). Only, it’s a scar in the making. We took him to the doctor, got ointment and a wrap.
Hope nobody got hurt in your family this year and that you were able to catch a few fireworks on film.
Did this post make you go hmm?

There’s a product called Mederma (and others similar) that contains an extract from onions, which helps remove, or at least improve the appearance of, even old scars. I applied it to a year-old burn scar on my leg every day for a few weeks, and now I’m not even sure exactly where the scar was. Once your son’s wound heals, he might want to try this.
You can buy it, or similar products, at almost any pharmacy (or Wal-Mart, if you must).
