INDEPENDENCE DAY
Written by Captain Mary on Saturday, July 05, 2008.
The best part of this weekend is that it starts on Friday and for me it doesn't end until Monday night. We started first thing in the morning with a Parade, the locals make their own floats and the kids were adorable, some decorating their own little bikes and wagons. After the parade I went over to my best friends house the Royal Ones. We had a great BBQ, you know some days hot dogs and hamburgers taste so good, especially after being on a diet for so many months. We swam in the pool and just chilled, because that's what we do best, my family and friends, well it doesn't get any better than that. We head out to the fireworks display down in Homestead to let the kids blow off some steam, the kids included everybody. I even got out there and tossed the Frisbee around for awhile. Dark came upon us and the display started, the sounds and smells remind you of how important the day really is. Just think if we were still ruled by the British, how different would things be? Good or Bad nobody knows for certain.

I wouldn't want to be a British citizen. We have something that they don't, it's called the 1st Amendment.
It allows me to openly criticize our government without fear of reprisal.
