Just an introduction to see whos out there.
Any one interested in part of my story may read this. http://www.goldivas.com/articles/article.aspx?id=91 I use Pyro to keep me young. Although I just had a birthday so it hasn't stopped the years from passing. We have done shows for TV, Stone Mountain, Weddings, 4th of July and more. We have done it all, handfire, electronic fire, computer fire, and combinations. |

You'll find some other lady pyros here. Hopefully you'll be able to meet some of the other 1% that you mentioned. On behalf of the 98%+, welcome!

Welcome to Pyro U.
That was a great read. Mother of pearl!!! What is that monster shell you are holding in the picture? My neighbors would flee in terror if they saw me coming home with one of those! E |

Looks like a 12" Brocade Crown.
By the way, PyroSugar, I remember reading that article some time ago as it was a result on some googling....nice to have you here.

I hope to get to know some of you and your stories. As we all know unexpected things happen in the pyro world.
Yes, that was a 12" Brocade Crown. The viewers were about 1/2 mile away on the other side of the river. The smallest shell was a 6". Set up was about 30 hours. We took shifts. |

Welcome. Great read.
I like that in your bio, the first accomplishment you list is being a stay at home mom and home-schooling your kids. You definitely have your priorities straight. It's great to have you here. |

My wife says to say hello. She has helped set up a number of displays, as well as electrically shoot shows. The article on Goldivas was great.
Welcome and my wife and I look forward to meeting you someday. Bob |

Welcome aboard! I too am new to the community. It appears you are an avid shooter and I would love to pick your brain sometime. Maybe share information on previous shoots and such. Again welcome...

I can't spell/type but I can shoot fireworks. It is nice to know this is such an accepting community. Completed a concert pyro job for Skillet lasts weekend in Cullman AL. I think some of it is on U-tube.
Be careful out there. |

I am a female also. I hope to soon get the experience of shells and other large outdoor.Your biography is very impressive! My experience is with proximate pyro. I was able to be a part of a few small charity events with our indoor stuff. And I am also from H'ville, Alabama. Nice Work!!!
