"Independence Day in the U.S., is an annual holiday commemorating the formal adoption by the Continental Congress of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776, in Philadelphia. Although the signing of the Declaration was not completed until August, the Fourth of July holiday has been accepted as the official anniversary of U.S. independence and is celebrated in all states and territories of the U.S." More Here
What an incredible Holiday! The reason I put that quote, is because I was wondering more about it... 1776... The "formal adoption" of the Declaration of Independence from England! Bells rang and our fellow countrymen celebrated! What a proud day in the history of our Country! We should celebrate! It is a positively wonderful thing to be FREE!
Thank you to those who continue to sacrifice, fight and give your lives for our freedom! You are real-life HEROS! Our founding-fathers are proud of you!
