Happy Independence Day

This will be a very nice day for the July 4th holiday. I'm looking forward to a relaxing day off.

Whenever I read the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, I am reminded of what an amazing group of guys our founders were. To think that they created this system of government in a world where nothing like it existed adds to my awe and respect for this group of gentlemen. To think that the Brits regarded them as nothing but rabble and hayseeds from the colonies who didn't have the sense to govern themselves. I think they were proven wrong.

The very act of signing that Declaration they knew to be very likely their own death warrants, but they stepped up and did it anyway.

Happy 4th!
