I have a big farm bell in my back yard. Last night while listening to my wife's little fluffy house dog screech his displeasure at my neighbor's backyard fireworks display, I resolved to arise at daylight this morning and ring hell out of that bell in retaliation. Unfortunately, I overslept.
Happy 4th anyway...Geo

All the best to my American friends as you celebrate this auspicious date. You have created an amazing country.

Geo, my late Aussie used to run for cover when he'd hear fireworks or thunder. My two Britts hear the same and want to go hunting. Happy Fourth to all. Gil

Indeed- fireworks, Boston Pops concerts, and only one week until the All-Star Game. Will be drinking Sam Adams tonight and watching the neighborhood fireworks displays--Cheers!

In our Bi-Centennial year, the Beach Boys were performing on the National Mall. Same old thing this year. I was at Wolf Trap Farm in 1976. This year, I will be at home. The National Fireworks Display is visible from my house, but far enough away that I don't have to "claim space".

Congrats America! Hope we have a great partner to the south for another couple hundred years!
Life is too short to have a 'hate on' for so many things or people. Isn't it?

Amen to that. All Vets, no matter what branch of military service, who put their lives on the line to keep America free, deserve our utmost respect and recognition.

Did my ritual on every July 4th and watched the movie 1776.
Like Shane, that movie never gets old.
