Happy 4th All!

Even in this darkest time of America, remember to think about those who gave their lives so that we can enjoy the way of life we have. Not only in wars, but in exploration of America, in the building of America.

Even while we are governed by an insipid monster, with the intelligence of poi, do not forget the men and women fighting today, and those who made the ultimate sacrifice in the past.

Remember those who came before us, from Ireland, England, Africa, France, and every other country they came from to allow this country to be as diverse as it is.
We ALL are Americans, and whether we came here on our own, or were forcibly brought here, we are ALL Americans now, and our vote, and beliefs CAN make a difference.

Do not forget those brave men and women who did the unthinkable in 1776, and declared Independence from what was then the greatest power on the planet....AND WON.

If they could do that, we will surely, in the end, rid ourselves of the idiots in power.

GOD BLESS AMERICA, and bring power BACK to the people.

We're off to Santa Fe....and we hope you all have a happy, and safe 4th of July.
