Independence Day July 4th

Freedom;= independence, liberty, ease of movement, a right.
AS we celebrate July 4th with family picnics, parades, and fireworks.
Having a three day week end is always a bonus. Let's enjoy our freedom the many men and women who died to save you and me.
Harry and I have been so blessed to have the right of ease of movement to travel this great America. America for spacious sky and amber waves of grains. Purple mountains majesty above the fruited plains, and from sea to shinning sea.
Along our way we have paid our respect to George Washington the Father of country who led the many Americans in the Revolutionary war. He lays resting in Mount Vernon, Virgina. His home built on a hill while the Potomac river proudly babbles down stream. Sit on the many white wooden rocking chairs place over his back lawn. Close your eyes and let your mind wander back to the carefree days of America's innocence. The gathering of family in their Sunday best. No short shorts, no pants hanging to the knees, in fact nothing is bared. You have pride in your appearance and morals. The only thing fresh was game smoking in the smoke house.
While in Sumter, South Carolina,we have visited the many sites of the battles of the civil war. The many many battles were American rights were engaged to keep our freedom. This battle was between the states the north and south. Not just about slavery but about the states right. Chickamauga Ga. take a slow walk through the
civil history. Read and learn. Our ancestors fought many battles for our constitutional rights.
Pearl Harbor Dec 7th a Sunday a perfect day in paradise. Men, women, children, service men, naval nurses, going about their daily routine.Who knew this was the day that Japan plan to try to demise our sailors and naval fleet.We know the story. Japan choose to bomb Pearl Harbor. So many innocents died that day in paradise.
Our visit to Arlington National Cemetery standing at the foot of the Unknown Solider. The many rows of white crosses with a name of people who fought for my freedom. The many names of brave men and women on the wall of the Viet Nam war. Lest not forget the Korean conflict, War World I.
I do hope to visit ground zero. In fact this 4th my brother is paying his respect to those who never knew their fate that sunny glorious day given from the heavens above.
Remember to fly your American Flag daily. Showing your true colors of red white and blue, will give your spirit inner peace that all men are born equal and that all men are born FREE.
I am truly blessed having a wealth of knowledge, riches of family, grandchildren, friends, living in my golden years with sliver hair.
Happy fourth again have a fun day.
Be safe
