July 4, 2010
You have to love a nation that celebrates its independence every July 4, not with a parade of guns, tanks, and soldiers who file by the White House in a show of strength and muscle, but with family picnics where kids throw Frisbees, the potato salad gets iffy, and the flies die from happiness. You may think you have overeaten, but it is patriotism. -Erma Bombeck
Enjoy the day.

Happy 4th of July to you and yours, Margot. Love the quote; Erma was a hoot.
Happy 4th to you and yours, Margot! Erma reminds me of my mother. She loved Erma’s books!
Happy Holiday to all of you! Are you baking a State cake today?
What a fantastic quote! It sounds very American, and we’re feeling very patriotic today…
Enjoy your day.
