Happy Independence Day...

As we sit down today to good food, fellowhip, and fireworks,
may we reflect on the glorious history of our great nation.

Over two hundred years ago, our forefathers of the Second Continental Congress
met in Philadelphia and voted (12 out of the 13 colonies) to sign one of the 
most significant documents in history: the Declaration of Independence.
They believed that "all men are created equal"...and are "endowed by
their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are Life,
LIBERTY, and the pursuit of happiness..."

May we never forget the sacrifice of these great men 
(many if not all were branded traitors), their vision of freedom for this amazing 
country, and the thousands who have fought that she may remain free

Happy 242nd birthday, America!
