It was fireworks tonight ! I really enjoy fireworks! Ours was a shorty display. But it was an unexpected delight!.........there were many short rapid-fire sprays, lighting up the area with their brilliant beauty . Then there were the large ones that light up the night sky.  A surprising, and sudden event.   

       

So appreciated  until you take into account that the activity was sponsored by our hydro (power ) pole! going up in flames :(   

sigh........day 3 with no power.

Still, the fireworks were lovely.     

Also in breaking news here.........                                                                                                                         

Mapendo left yesterday for a family gathering. She was stranded for a time in Goma because the plane’s tire blew up! Thankful it happened while still on the ground!
