What You Need To Know About Fireworks In Georgia

 

Ah Independence Day and Fireworks, the sounds and smells of pure Americana at its finest.

The fourth of July is around the corner and people are getting ready to celebrate our independence in the most traditional way, a booming firework display!

Our early settlers brought fireworks from Europe to the United States. They have been used since the very first Independence Day to celebrate and are still used today.

Fireworks are not only fun for entertainment they also are a big money maker. Firework laws are done state by state but what most states have figured out is that firework sales bring in extra tax dollars that help the state.

Does Daylight Savings Actually Cause More Auto Accidents?

Some people look forward to the day where the clocks roll back while others cannot wait for the clocks to flip forward. So why do we do this silly act of changing our clocks? Well, it was done initially during World War I in efforts to help conserve energy.
