Dear Gramps,

With the 4th of July approaching and this being one of the driest rain seasons on record, it's more important than ever to get information out about the dangers of fireworks.

The city allows the sale and use of "Safe & Sane" fireworks from June 28 to July 4, but the tipline is only for July 4th.
