Happy 4th of July

This is an important day for our country. There will be parades, barbecues, family get-togethers, speeches and fireworks to celebrate our country's independence. I recently learned that the manager of a senior citizen apartment complex in the Palm Springs area planned a huge celebration for the residents there. . .for Cinco de Mayo! But had no intention of doing anything special for the 4th of July until the seniors spoke up and demanded a celebration for the United States. This is America! Be proud. Be respectful. Be careful. And enjoy your freedom.
