I know the 4th of July was a long time ago but I didn’t get a chance to post about it. I watched the fireworks on the shore of the Atlantic and it was a hot, wet night. It started pouring just as the first parcel of magic lit the sky… People were running around trying to find cover and laughing and yelling, it was really funny.

I enjoyed myself tremendously still, but I remember that in Michigan I saw a much bigger show to celebrate the occasion.

Now I’m not a spy but I do think America has every right to celebrate the 4th of July as flamboyantly as possible — to keep everything as it is but perhaps cut back on the democracy speeches that don’t sell.

I for one sure am glad America is independent, she earned it.
