Fourth of July


It is coming up and everyone that I talk to has plans. As for me, I have seen enough fireworks to last me the rest of my life. At least seeing them as the only attraction of the event. I still love a good concert accompanied by a fireworks display. This year, however, I will be staying at home and listening to some good music, eating some good food, enjoying friends and listening to the sounds of the surrounding parks as they put on a display. The fourth has come to be more about the fireworks and less about the meaning behind the founding of this nation. We, and here I mean our government, for the most part forget these values until it it politic to hold forth.
