Happy 237th!

My country 'tis of thee,
Sweet land of liberty,
Of thee I sing;
Land where my fathers died,
Land of the pilgrims' pride,
From every mountainside
Let freedom ring!

USA!  USA!  USA!



PS - The Washington Monument is having a little work done this year.  It survived the East Coast Earthquake, but was damaged.  Soon its cracks will be repaired and it will be good as new!  I hope the same will be true for all the cracks in the US. 








Edit:  There are people on Twitter congratulating the US on turning 2,013!!!

    1. Thank you, it was fun...mostly. It was offset some by really odd displays of ignorance. Now that I think about it, that describes most days we leave the house, doesn't it??? lol

    1. The 4th was fun--and full of good food. The only negative was encountering some people (while out) that day who were mostly likely among the group wishing the US a happy 2,013.
