Happy 4th of July.

For us Americans anyway.

Do not forget what our founding fathers gave their lives for--independence, freedom from tyranny and unjust laws, and the opportunity to create a better tomorrow.

Haha, excellent picture, Lutra. Yes, happy 4th to all my American friends here. Remember what the day is about! (And yes, it is about more than picnics and explosives XD )

Happy 4th of July to all you Americans! And happy belated Canada day to the... what, three Canadians?

Lutra, that picture is adorable.

*Sigh* I wish 4Th of July was only about explosives.
W0NWILL likes big booms. And little booms. And all booms. *Laughs maniacally*
Sorry, am I getting off topic?

Redwallfan7 · July 04, 2012, 06:31:41 AM

fireworks are banned over in my area, because of all the wild fires going on. Oh well.

W0NWILL · July 04, 2012, 06:38:44 AM

I pity you, no booms.

Happy Fourth Everyone! . . .Um. . .What else am I supposed to do in this topic? I wish we didn't have to go through all that war to get freedom. I mean is it really that hard to say,"I announce, freedom to the colonials in the New World," to them sahs, I mean really?

Our fireworks show was cool - there was red lightning flashing in the background the whole time

Happy 4th of July!
I'm a day late, but I was so busy blowing things up.

BBQ, country music and fireworks. It was a simple but perfect 4th.
