Oh, and I forgot one. Model rockets. Oh hell yeah...
Definitely - it's fireworks raised to another level. My parents' house backed up to a utility easement that had high-voltage power lines running down the middle, straight as an arrow for miles. We'd angle the rocket launcher guide rod over and go for horizontal distance. Great fun back then (now, the SWAT Team would probably roll out).
“Model rockets. Oh hell yeah...”
Estes rockets and Cox airplanes.
I still have a couple Estes I built with my son.
