Happy 4th of July!

Happy 4th of July! Judy, Jack and I walked the streets of Washington DC last weekend for a quick visit on our way home from a family vacation.

The Mall area (White House, Capital, Washington Monument, Lincoln Memorial) full of visitors from all across the US and seemingly the world. The countless tourists snapping selfies and family pics in front of the White House, hearing an overly loud amplified speaker enjoying his 1st Amendment right, and the sheer magnitude of American memorials and buildings representing our US history reminded me of how fortunate we are for the work of our Founding Fathers and Mothers! Thank you to the generation of people who formed our country and fought for our independence!

I am grateful to live in the United States of America, a country of people who strive to be an example of freedom, equality, and stability. We will always be a work in progress!

Happy 4th of July!
