One of our finer selections of reading material in our downstairs bathroom is a book about the signers of the Declaration of Independence. Talk about a group of men with convictions! Talk about independent! Holy Smokes! They basically signed away their wealth, homes, families and property. I don’t think any of them lived a long, happy life, like we are privileged to do today ONLY because of what they did 233 years ago. We are indebted to these men. Amazing men! Men who knew the true value of freedom and liberty…. priceless!
Enjoy your day of food and fireworks… and don’t forget the fathers who made it all possible.

They proved themselves to be men of integrity, unlike many in our government today.

Sorry Linda. I didn’t know you were the last one logged on from my computer. Those are my feelings.

Yah, Dad, I keep forgetting to log off over there. And those are my feelings as well. :o)
