Thank you, Mike. It is a wonderful Holiday in the States, that should be celebrated by people all over the World. Not to be like the United States, but to feel truely free, create their own destiny and be able to do and believe in what they want.
PATRIOT’S DECLARATION
“The Sun never shined on a cause of greater worth.” —Thomas Paine (1776) ++ “I am well aware of the Toil and Blood and Treasure, that it will cost Us to maintain this Declaration, and support and defend these States. Yet through all the Gloom I can see the Rays of ravishing Light and Glory. I can see that the End is more than worth all the Means. And that Posterity will tryumph in that Days Transaction, even altho We should rue it, which I trust in God We shall not.” —John Adams (1776) ++ “Our cause is noble; it is the cause of mankind!” —George Washington (1779) ++ “[T]he flames kindled on the 4 of July 1776, have spread over too much of the globe to be extinguished by the feeble engines of despotism; on the contrary, they will consume these engines and all who work them.” —Thomas Jefferson (1821) ++ “If we wish to be free; if we mean to preserve inviolate those inestimable privileges for which we have been so long contending; if we mean not basely to abandon the noble struggle in which we have been so long engaged, and which we have pledged ourselves never to abandon until the glorious object of our contest shall be obtained—we must fight! I repeat it, sir, we must fight! An appeal to arms, and to the God of hosts, is all that is left us.” —Patrick Henry (1775)

Thank you for your comments, Mike and Rick. It is about 11PM on the 3rd, here in KS. I just finished wiring and installing a floodlight so I can display the flag all night tonight and tomorrow night. Weatherman just announced that it will probably rain tonight, which would foil my plans.
Either way, I am proud of my country.
