Happy Independence Day

After long debates and deliberations, our founders finally declared independence and revised and approved a final declaration on July 4th, 1776. A couple days before, John Adams wrote to his wife:

"The second day of July, 1776, will be the most memorable epoch in the history of America. I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival. 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."

Happy birthday America, Sweet Land of Liberty. Many happy returns. PleasohpleasedearLordabove.
