Grosh Family Blog - Hobbies on a budget
I am a hobbie type of guy. One of the big things we have cut this year is my hobbies. I like to get involved in any cool or unique hobbie. However, it always puts a dent in my wallet. Juggling requires lots of juggling equipment. Wood working, lots of tools. Puzzles, rubix cubes, stunt kite flying, COMPUTER CONTROLLED CHRISTMAS LIGHTS, etc...
A friend of mine got involved with building fireworks a few years ago and it was something that always interested me. Howerever, it too is kinda expensive. This year he invited me to their BIG event. The event is 5 days long filled with building and launching all types of fireworks. Tt was something I really wanted to do. However I really didn't even have $50 to spend on the entry fee. He said that i could make most of that back by helping setup on the first two days. Well, that solved the money issue for me. I am very glad he invited me and i was able to go. It was truly one of the coolest things I have done all year. I got to help setup and see the inner working of a fireworks display. I also got a chance to build a real 3" canister shell. Probably the coolest thing was helping load some Maltese shells that were as big as i am.
