Do your neighbouring blocks or houses, do they pop fireworks at new years?

@Elandra77 Do u wish people would?

@Dan193 That might be nice for a year or two but I do not see that happening.

Oddly, in Somerset Pa I have 53F--it is usually 20-30 F. (or colder)

Ok-some people are setting their own off now. Kinda nice.

@Elandra77 yeah, it's pretty nice when people fire their own, an it's like fireworks everywhere u look at midnight.

@Dan193 That is cool!! We have a Fire and Ice event around the 15th-18th of the month that last for three days. On Saturday night there are fireworks.

@Elandra77 Fire and ice? you get ice sculptures? or that's just the name of it?

@Dan193 Yes, some are done Friday, live, and the ones that take a bit more effort get done live Saturday afternoon as the fire pits are lit uptown and the popcorn makers are out popping corn. And Hot Chocolate is FREE! It s quite a draw.

I believe they cost each store that gets one 700-800 hundred dollars. Some a LOT more.

@Elandra77 That's awesome, I'd go every year for popcorn and free hot chocolate x) better than staying at home.

@Dan193 Rain and sun are the enemies that weekend, A few years back it trained all three daysand the statues looked terrible. And sun over 32 will melt them fast. If it was tonight they would be history as it is 53.

There is also a barbecue pit, Ribs, Pulled Pork and so on. Just bring your wallet.

There is a parade Saturday and a Octoberfest tent at night where adult beverages can be had for a price. But that is far form main street. Close where the fireworks were. Most ignore the tent though.

@Elandra77 Hopefully this year will be a good one and the event will go smoothly and you will enjoy yourself. You're going, right?

@Dan193 I may. It was more fun when I had a family. If I go now it will be just me. However I can do that! Stores remain open and a lot have munchies!!

@Elandra77 I understand.
