Independence Day

Come let's celebrate the fourth of July
With baseball, hot dogs, and Mom's apple pie
We're sure to ignite
Fireworks at night
So head on over, we'll light up the sky

Sounds wonderful Tim!! A Perfect Limerick indeed on America's Special Day!! Say Hello to the USA for me since I'm over here in Germany. My thoughts on the 4th, however, will be with my family, relatives, and friends back in the USA and the big celebration on this day for all of the great things our country stands for as the Home of Democracy and Land of the Brave!! Best Always, Gary
