Happy 4th To everyone



I just wanted to take a moment to wish everyone an Happy Independence Day.
I also want to reflect on what this day means to Americans. It is a day that we look back at the wisdom and courage of our country's founders. They went up against amazing odds to create this country. Those people who settled in this land were a special kind of people. They left their comfort zones to venture out into an unknown place to make a new life. That takes courage, strength & perseverance. And that is where we come from. The blood of these ancestors runs through our veins and makes us strong. For me I have the blood of courageous Irish, Scotch, German, Welsh & Cherokee ancestors within me. I Thank them for their sacrifices and their courage. We can have this day to celebrate with family and friends because of what they did, the vision they had. Happy Independence Day to everyone.
