Halloween remnants

During my morning run (about 7:30am) through the nearby park (in the middle of a residential area), I saw the bonfire from last night still flaming! Not merely smoking, but flames. Not a person around, just a huge black circle with a fire in the center. I had this strange feeling of being taken back to the primitive days of Ireland.

As I continued the run, I passed a couple other piles of bonfire remnants, but with only smoldering coals. Meanwhile, the fireworks last night lasted from 5pm to about 9pm. Tonight I am still hearing them...it's been about 2 hours now...
