Good morning. In less than an hour, aircraft from here will join others from around the world. And you will be launching the largest aerial battle in the history of mankind. "Mankind." That word should have new meaning for all of us today. We can't be consumed by our petty differences anymore. We will be united in our common interests. Perhaps it's fate that today is the Fourth of July, and you will once again be fighting for our freedom... Not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution... but from annihilation. We are fighting for our right to live. To exist. And should we win the day, the Fourth of July will no longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day the world declared in one voice: "We will not go quietly into the night!" We will not vanish without a fight! We're going to live on! We're going to survive! Today we celebrate our Independence Day!

We have a ton of folks coming and going over the weekend. I spent today prepping ahead...veggie trays/dips, fruit salads, pound cakes, desserts. Thank goodness for two refrigerators or I'd be in trouble. But we're looking forward to seeing many relatives and friends.

Wherever you may be, whatever you may have planned, be safe and have a very happy holiday. I remember to take a few moments to thank our men and women of the Armed Forces, past and present, for their service to our country to ensure the freedom and independence we celebrate over the next few days.

Well, my plans did come through and the rain held off. I'm going to post a few of the better photos of the show that I took. (The show was in Camilla, Ga). I have video of the Grand Finale, but I don't know how to post it. The showlasted about 30 minutes, not bad a small city.

Hoping everyone in the good ole U.S.A. had a wonderful Independence Day. My two sisters and I had a 'sisters' weekend at my oldest sister's place on the Chesapeake Bay. We had a good time, but the weather was horrible. It rained the whole time and was windy and chilly. We were going to cook out for dinner, but we just cancelled and headed home early instead.

Happy 4th of July!!!!! :D

Hope everyone in the US is having a great one. We weren't really able to do anything either. It's been really rainy and chilly here too, not at all how it usually is this time of year. Wasn't able to do a cookout today but we had one back on Saturday since it was perfect weather that day and we knew what was coming. Had the concert yesterday too so we're all relaxing and getting ready to go back to work tomorrow.

Our town parade goes by our house, so we will have a bunch over to watch it. Then we'll have a cookout afterwards for about 25 people or so. I've been cooking all day and am taking a little break before I finish. Have a fun and safe 4th of July holiday!

Happy Independence Day, everyone!

If it doesn’t get rained out, we might go see one of the local parades. Also, probably take the boat out and watch fireworks over the water. It’s become sort of a tradition for us.

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY everyone!

I went to my little city's Independence Day parade this morning. I love seeing all the kids dressed in red, white & blue & their bikes & wagons decorated. Too cute!!
I will be heading out in a little bit for an afternoon/evening of food, friends, fun & fireworks in downtown H-town. Always good music & great fireworks!!
I know our country is definitely not perfect but this holiday always reminds me how truly thankful I am to be a citizen!!GOD BLESS AMERICA!

Soda - I hope you feel better! I was just remembering this morning about the 4th of July we spent in Muscle Shoals a few years ago. So much fun!! I wonder if Glenn's photo is still hanging in the hotel?

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY MY BORDER FRIENDS. PLEASE STAY SAFE.

Soda - Hope you feel better soon.

Fireworks, parades, etc are all cancelled here. The beaches and boardwalks are open. It is a cloudy overcast day here but I'm sure they will be crowded. Towns limit the number of people allowed on the beach to 25% capacity. The malls opened on Monday(6/29), also to 25% capacity. No eat-in dining or indoor movies. Everyone I know is just staying home, which I will be doing.

Delilah
07-04-2020, 11:10 AM
Yep, no parades or big fireworks gatherings here. We are fortunate though that we’ll be able to watch some fireworks on the lake and stay close to home.

Brooke, I echo your sentiments. So many problems facing our country but I am still grateful for the freedoms we have.

Happy Independence Day!!

Hoping everyone in the U.S.A. had a good Independence Day in spite of these strange times we're in. I'm very worried about our country right now. As we always say, united we stand, divided we fall. I just hope and pray that we will eventually come out of all of this even stronger and better than ever. All day long, this phrase from the Pledge of Allegiance has been going through my head. It seems more important now than at any other point in my lifetime ...


One nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all!

Very well stated Dreamer. The USA is in dire need of repair and we seriously need unity and love and not someone who leads us into division and hate. That said - we are still USA strong and we will get through this, however long it may take.

Happy 4th to the USA Borderers!
