America celebrates her 237th Birthday today. |
Happy Independence Day!
John asks:
How many people asked you yesterday, "What are you doing for the 4th?" Well, it seemed unlikely to reply that I would look through my archives and see if I could find a few photos to share on my blog. Ha ha. But that is the way it is. So, here we go and hope you enjoy ...

This mountain sunrise, the dawn of a new day, embraces the hope we have for another great year for America. |

The Blue Angels would be an appropriate celebration today. We have them here in Seattle (most years) but usually in August as a part of Seafair. |

There will be parades all over the country today. If I was in a small town, like the one above, I might go to the parade. Well, sometimes, it seems like "seen one, seen 'em all" ... so maybe not. Ha ha. |

Balloons seem appropriate. |

Fireworks are a must. Later this evening we WILL have them in Seattle. We nearly DIDN'T but the locals rallied and will "get 'er done". The issue was "economic", of course. |

Nature, of course, can put fireworks to shame. |
Beautiful and appropriate pictures. Have a great day.
ReplyDeletei wholeheartedly agree with nature taking the prize. :) lovely set of pics for independence day!
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures! We are already having lots of firecrackers, every few minutes, and it's still light out. I'll not sleep well tonight, I suspect. :-)
