“Gear Down.”
Happy 236th Birthday and counting. I remember the 200th celebration pretty well. I wonder what America and this earth will be like in 2076?
A good argument can be made that July 2 should be the day we celebrate because that’s the day the Continental Congress actually voted to declared its independence from Great Britain. We celebrate it today because this is the day the Congress approved the wording of the document which would be known as the Declaration of Independence. Don’t assume it was signed that day. Who signed when is in controversy.

That is beautiful. I love birds of prey. Here in Louisiana I see hawks on a regular basis. I love to watch them hunt and call. I’ve seen some eagles here as well, but no bald eagles.
I love them too. We hardly ever see them in the San Francisco Bay Area, but there are many of them in Alaska.
