From Wikipedia:
"Independence Day, commonly known as the Fourth of July, is a federal holiday in the United States commemorating the adoption of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776, declaring independence from the Kingdom of Great Britain. Independence Day is commonly associated with fireworks, parades, barbecues, carnivals, fairs, picnics, concerts, baseball games, family reunions, and political speeches and ceremonies, in addition to various other public and private events celebrating the history, government, and traditions of the United States. Independence Day is the national day of the United States."
The weather here wanted to be part of the celebration, so it rained! Yea! We are just relaxing and staying cool today. We will have a hot dog feast this afternoon, with tomato, cucumber and onion salad and chips and salsa. Funny, chips and salsa goes with everything;). Watching a movie is also in the plans, but likely from NetFlix. I hope your day is as relaxing and delicious as mine.
Have a great Independence Day!
