For all Americans in our community, I hope you had a fun (and safe!) 4th of July. Why not leave a comment, and let the rest of us know how you celebrated today? Did you cook out? Did you and the family head to the fireworks show? Independence Day is always one of my favorite holidays. I love the fireworks and food, of course – but also I appreciate the meaning the day holds. I sincerely thank all soldiers past and present for fighting for my freedom. Hopefully, you took the time to remember to do the same.

Our community was pretty quiet today, likely due to so many people out celebrating! However, I did find several excellent things that I wanted to pass along to all of you.
