What He Said

[ithildin]

"It ought to be commemorated as the day of deliverance, by solemn acts of devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires, and illuminations, from one end of this continent to the other, from this time forward forever more." ~ John Adams on Independence Day

No fireworks here either :) I'll watch the PBS from DC special they have every year as my part in celebrating [g]
