Happy Independence Day!

Happy Independence Day!! - Happy Independence Day!

I wish everyone a very happy and safe Independence Day!

While you enjoy the 4th of July weekend, take time to reflect upon what July 4th represents!

Independence Day of the United States, also referred to as Fourth of July or July Fourth in the USA, is a federal holiday commemorating the adoption of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776, the date on which the United States formally separated from Great Britain.

Independence Day is commonly associated with fireworks, parades, barbecues, carnivals, fairs, picnics, concerts, baseball games, family reunions, and political speeches and ceremonies, in addition to various other public and private events celebrating the history, government, and traditions of the United States.

Independence Day is the National Day of the United States. Independence Day itself has nothing to do with the military, or soldiers.
