Happy 243rd Birthday, America!

This morning I woke up and hung Old Glory on the front porch.  I immediately thought of how blessed I am to be living in the United States of America.  I love our country.

Oh sure, we have our warts.  But I am proud to be an American.  I am thankful for the freedoms that we are able to experience.  The blood of patriots afforded this opportunity to me, and I won't forget it or take it lightly.

May we as a people unite as our Pledge says and "be One Nation Under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."

God Bless America!
