That's right Thru.,Fri., And Sat., night. Watch your weather do your show on the "Best" weather night!! You don't have to shot on the 4th. I'm hoping one of the these days is at least a 5. Odds of that slim at best. We all know what a 10 evening is. The eve after a Big, thunder, high winds, and a good amount of lighting. That next day is 7 times out of 10 times is a 10. I know to many tens. But if all the gods (has to be a fireworks god) get with it and give us a 10 on one of these three days..... I plan to present "THE SHOW" on a ten. If one of the three isn't 10 i'll have a show "but" it will not be "THE SHOW".

I understand what you meant but MIND BLOWN! We always hope for a 10. If we hope for a 5 we might get a 10.

Li Tian was pretty much the Chinese 'god' of fireworks..
" Fireworks originated in China. It was during the Song dynasty that Li Tian, a Chinese monk, invented fireworks. "
" Every April 18th, the Chinese people celebrate the invention of fireworks by celebrating its inventor, Li Tian. Fireworks have become a cherished part of many celebrations and often is the event that everyone looks forward to. The loud noises, light and vibrant colors are a sight to see, exciting crowds with awe. "

Interesting , it looks like he is the "Godfather" "Grandfather"of firecrackers in China.

•Li Tian, the Founder

There was an emperor named Li Shiming in the Tang Dynasty (618-907 AD). His Prime Minister, Wei Zhou, killed an evil dragon, which then came back to haunt him. He was greatly vexed and did not know what to do. Li Tian ignited a bamboo tube that was filled with a pyrotechnic composition. The ghost was frightened by the loud bang and went away. After that, the people called Li Tian the founder of crackers and every April 18th they offer sacrifices to him. It was said that in the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, in the east of Hunan Province there were floods and droughts every year. Li Tian went to Liu Yang and was struck by the people's poverty. He set off fireworks to disperse the evil, after which, the people lived and worked in peace and prosperity. In the Song Dynasty (980-1271 AD) people set up a temple to worship Li Tian.

This should give a perspective on the size of the statue.
