We gave 2008 a fine send off and ushered in 2009 in the time honored manner. Copious amounts of things that go boom. To do things right, we built our own rocket battery. Here is the monstrosity.
There are near to 1000 bottle rockets in that array. We actually had more, but ran out of room. Next year we'll get a bigger grid. We set the whole thing off at midnight.
Of course, at the end of it our cardboard launch platform was on fire. Hey, you use what you've got. That's why God invented fire extinguishers. Here are the smoldering ruins.
Happy New Year!
