HAPPY 4TH OF JULY

In a letter to Abigail Adams, John Adams wrote about Independence Day:

"I believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival. It ought to be celebrated by pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires, and illuminations from one end of this continent to the other."
