Fireworks in Covington

I was born at St. Elizabeth's
in Covington but lived in Cincinnati until my dad died in 1984 and
then we moved to Covington when I was 13. My cousins Boe and Mary
Lou Steinborn lived on the corner of 18th and Garrard and every 4th
of July everyone in the neighborhood would come to that corner to
let off their fireworks and to see all the others. It was a great
time. Then after it was all over everyone would get their brooms and
start sweeping.
