The FReeper Canteen Presents...
~ Independence Day, July 4, 1776 ~
Preamble to the Declaration of Independence
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed, by their Creator, with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.
That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

Howdy, radu!
We DID get a bit of rain .... 1/10th” LOL...but it did cool things from 98 to 78 and now it’s “only” 82. Still looks like it could rain, but probably won’t.
How was your day? Are y’all doing something fun for the 4th? Did you get the rain you thought you might?

Well YAY for the rain cooling things off nicely!
We got a little rain but not much more than you did .... only .15 of an inch. It rained heavily along the way a couple of times while took Churchill to the vet but we got only that little bit.
Ended up being a good day. I thought we might lose Churchill because he stopped eating over the weekend. He’s Buckwheat’s half-brother and I feared his kidneys were conking out too. Fortunately, his blood work came out great and he apparently just has a bad sinus infection. Sub-Q fluids and a Convenia shot have him feeling better already.
We’d planned to go to a fireworks show tonight but rain on the radar over that town kept us home. I went out a little while ago to watch fireworks being shot off around the area though. Nothing going on around here tomorrow.
Anything fun going on there y’all plan to do?

OUCH! Hangovers aren’t fun.
But it looked like you were among some fine company during those 10 beers. :-) Just stinks the gathering was for a somber purpose. Such a sad loss.
