Happy 4th of July ~ Independence Day

[RPK]

23 years ago today I celebrated Independence Day as it was the 1st day of my retirement. I have been blessed to not only live in this great country but to have had good health along the way.

So, I am wishing everyone here in the USA and the rest of the world only the best on this 4th of July and each day forward.

And the same back to you sir, may we always respect this country and the freedoms it represents as much as this young buck seems to.

Just discovered that I've gotten old enough to find the fireworks I'm subjected to going off right now annoying.
