Happy Fourth, Anyway

Even though it seems that anti-Christian forces are gaining the upper hand, there's still a great deal to love in this country–much to love, and much for which to be grateful.

This picture was taken five years ago at the home of my wife's sister and her husband. There was a big family gathering on that Fourth, and a very pleasant time, and this image has remained in my mind as representative of all Fourths, or at least of what they should be.

    Lovely photo.
    Can’t tell you how much I miss the 4th of July celebrations.

  2. I can imagine. It’s funny, I never cared much about it till maybe ten or twelve years ago. Now it’s become very sweet to me. We watched the fireworks over the bay a couple of hours ago.
    That boat belongs to my brother-and-sister-in-law. They lived on it for a while. Now they rent a little house nearby. It’s a pretty-near idyllic place.
