Just wanted to do a quick post to wish everyone a very Happy Independence Day! Hope you have some fun stuff planned.
I, for one, am grateful to be living in the United States of America and to have the freedoms I have. Thank you to the servicemen and women, past and present, for the sacrifices made/are making all for our great country!
Oh and so cool...I just heard on the radio that the crown of The Statue of Liberty is open for tours today. Oh man! Can you even imagine how glorious that would be?! Not only to be part of such a historic event but oh that view....!
Hello there and Happy 4th to you and yours!!! What a wonderful post! I can remember being at the base of the Statue of Liberty years and years ago. My family was born and raised on the East coast and I actually took a "field trip" to New York City when I was in middle school. (we lived in Philly) The twin towers, the ferry, the empire... etc. These are memories that I'll never forget and I am truly thankful every day for such wonderful opportunities!
Have a great day!

Wonderful show about Ellis Island on PBS today...and another about the American Flag, which I watched while dozing off...wish I would have been more tuned amazing.
We are so fortunate...and we need to be reminded.
Thanks, Michelle.
