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.

Happy 4th of July to you and Gizmo.

Looks like a toasty day y’all had for you outing yesterday. Gizmo looked tuckered out when you left. But he had energy enough to roll a bit. LOL

It is painful watching what the left is doing to our once great and proud USA.
I sure hope the bad demons of hate vacate soon.

Sounds like you live in the perfect location for a fireworks junkie like yourself! You should get your fill with 4 full days and nights of it. I might have to at least watch Anchorage on the replay. The live view will be too late, even for the Night Owl. LOL!

In fact, I’m going to finish this show and head to the barn. Maybe people have quit setting them off till tomorrow. And at least I did get a view of that gorgeous moon. See ya tomorrow...but not for a quiz. I have the night off...not sure what to do with myself. LOL!

It’s the best location for a fireworks junkie I’ve ever lived. LOL

I hope a cam op shows up at the Lake Hood cam to zoom in on the area where the fireworks are tomorrow night. It was either last year or the year before that no one showed up and we only got to see a few when the cam panned by. It was a disappointment.

I finally got to see the moon. I went to the kitchen a little while ago and there it was, gleaming through thee window. I’d love to go for a walk in that bright moonlight but I don’t have a few hours to clear my head out before going to bed. The corn across the road is loaded with tassels and those tassels are loaded with pollen.

I’m about ready to head to bed since I had to get up early this morning. Thank goodness I can sleep I tomorrow!

Sleep well. Catch ya tomorrow.

Happy fourth of July. We are a highly improbable nation, forever on the verge of disaster. And also the best, last hope of mankind. Letโ€™s celebrate that.
