There is a special place in my heart for Independence Day. Neighbors, families, and friends all seem to stop for a brief moment in time to celebrate, not only the greatness of our country, but also the little things that make us proud to be Americans --The sand-lot softball games and the smell of hot dogs on the grill, the small town parades, and big city fireworks. Independence Day is steadily climbing the charts for one my favorite holidays. I wish each of you, my friends, a wonderful 4th and I hope you can take a little time to enjoy a few things that make this country our home!
