Happy Independence Day!

As we all prepare for our 4th of July festivities . . .

~ ~ I want to wish you all a very safe and glorious 4th of July.

Today is the day that we count our blessings to live in the most wonderful country in the world.

There is nothing like hearing our National Anthem, The Star Spangled Banner . . .

~ ~ singing along, whether it be at a ball park or national event . . I always draw a tear.

Yes, I am a “sappy person” . . . as I get overwhelmed by how proud I am to be an American.

    Happy 4th to you Shirley, and followers of Hospitality Designs. I am a bit sappy too. I have been all over the world but love my USA even more when my feet hit home soil. Many thanks to our ancestors and sons who for all they have done to make our country what it is. Sheila

    I too love this great country and am grateful all the men and women that continue to keep us safe and free to do the simple pleasures we often take for granted like this. Happy fourth of July to you and your family. Thank God I’m allowed to live in this wonderful country.
