GREENFIELD, Wis. (CBS 58) -- Frank Markel fires his Civil War era cannons every Fourth of July.
Markel says he's "just trying to celebrate our independence and put a little patriotism in everybody."
He's gotten push-back from the city of Greenfield ever since moving there.
In 2018, Markel got a $1,000 ticket for a noise violation.
He's still fighting it and plans to fire the cannons again on his front lawn Thursday.
Greenfield's Police Chief says he'll be there.
