Hope you have fun planned for today! We are going to the river….boating to Lake Fort Gibson ~ come back around one heading for a friends BBQ….back to the river to make a trip to another lake then go back to Tommy’s for the huge fireworks display. He use to put on a professional fireworks display for the town….insurance became too high so now he’s doing this for all the emergency personal for our county. I need to water….I’ll be back!

 

 

It’s weird….I can’t get into the other post….can someone copy and past the replies to this one?

Happy 4th of July everyone. I will go downtown this afternoon as the Kiddie parade starts at 1 and then I will just hang out down there until it is time to meet some friends at a restaurant , then we are going to the Friday night races. this is only the 2 nd race that I have gone to as with work and weather,lol.

Right now I am going outside to let the Kittys play and I will sit and read my Queens Fool book.

 

 

Connie……I hate to hear that and you already know how I feel….I am so proud of your men but you know…I want him to stay w/you ~ yes, I know that’s not what he’s going to do but I still wish he would! Hugs to you both!

John Adams to Abigail Adams

Philadelphia July 3d. 1776

...But the Day is past. The Second Day of July 1776, will be the most memorable Epocha, in the History of America. —

I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated, by succeeding Generations, as the great anniversary Festival. It ought to be commemorated, as the Day of Deliverance by solemn Acts of Devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with Pomp and Parade, with Shews, Games, Sports, Guns, Bells, Bonfires and Illuminations from one End of this Continent to the other from this Time forward forever more.

You will think me transported with Enthusiasm but I am not. — I am well aware of the Toil and Blood and Treasure, that it will cost Us to maintain this Declaration, and support and defend these States. — Yet through all the Gloom I can see the Rays of ravishing Light and Glory. I can see that the End is more than worth all the Means. And that Posterity will tryumph in that Days Transaction, even altho We should rue it, which I trust in God We shall not.

Happy Independence Day! 

 

Happy 4th Everyone! Have said a prayer for our troups. I hope all my FIENDS have a great day today. LMBO. Linda, I can't tell you how many times I've done that. LOL. Chris thanks for posting the pic. I'll show it to Nicole. She is on her way to get us and then we're going back to her place to play and watch the fireworks tonight. Hugs to you all. I'll try and get back on when I get to DDs place.

Good morning, Don…..that is very interesting reading. My Dad was a huge fan of history and loved articles like this…he would spend hours on end on things just like this, I love it. Hope you have a great day planned…..I hope to capture 3 baby skunks (live trap) today to give them a chance to grow up and get away from my house before they become a problem and while they are still cute….well, that tail in the air isn’t THAT cute! *smiles*

 

Thank you for stopping by..We love to have you anytime or all the time!

Hi all and Happy 4th of July...Remembering all those today fighting for our country. Hoping they can return home soon to be with their families.

I need to get into the kitchen to get my baked beans, potato salad, and a few other salads started. DH went and bought a few steaks....salmon for me

 

Hope you all have a great day today and stay safe!
