Steve thought that this was the year to introduce the grandkids to his “spud gun”. This was a gift from one of his brothers years ago. Steve has found through trial and error that limes seem to work better than potatoes. First you put the lime in the barrel and make sure it fits tightly.
Then add five seconds worth of cheap hairspray (propellant)……
….twist the sparker and watch it fly! The limes went several hundred feet, both up and out. Everybody got in the action.
Cover your ears because it is a bit noisy. The kids loved trying to find and retrieve the limes. This was a novelty for everyone to enjoy…..possibly another new tradition for the Christmas holiday, although someone mentioned that they might be illegal in Texas?
