Sweet Land of Liberty



Happy 4th of July,  the Birthday of the Signing of the 

Declaration of Independence!

I am so grateful to live in a Nation whose Forefathers and original 

Patriots had the courage and foresight to envision our  great 

Republic.







As we enjoy our celebrations, parades, flags, patriotic songs  and 

fireworks, we should never forget what these Wise Patriots 

created for us.

And we should also remember the advise and warnings they have 

given us about our nation.




The liberties of our country, the freedom of our civil 


Constitution, are worth defending at all hazards; and it is our 


duty to defend them against all attacks. We have received them 


as a fair inheritance from our worthy ancestors: they purchased 


them for us with toil and danger and expense of treasure and 


blood, and transmitted them to us with care and diligence. It 


will bring an everlasting mark of  infamy on the present 


generation, enlightened as it is,  if we should suffer them to be 


wrested from us by violence without a struggle, or to be cheated 


        out of them by the artifices of false and designing men.”                               


- Samuel Adams 1722-1803












God Bless  the  U.S.A.




Have a Happy 4th of July!!


Until next time, Honey
