Happy Independence Day!

It’s America’s birthday and I’m celebrating. My Army Staff Sergeant son is still in Japan–Okinawa. My Navy LT CDR daughter’s still in the DC area in the next of her long line of Navy jobs. They do not leave her in one position for long! I thank both of them and all those soldiers who fought for America’s uncertain future so long ago.

God be with all of us.

 

 

I was going to replace this next one but it’s been viewed by

29 million people!

I couldn’t find a better celebratory song.

I want to include all my efriends from Canada in the celebrations though I’m a few days late for Canada Day:

July 1 is Canada Day. It commemorates the joining of Canada’s original three provinces (Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and the Canada province, which is now Ontario and Quebec) as one nation in 1867. The holiday was previously called Dominion Day, for the Dominion of Canada in the British empire.

  1. Happy 4th to one and all, especially those service people who can’t be with their families today.

    1. That’s my son! Okinawa is still quite shut down for COVID. He’s hoping to get back here toward the end of the year.
