Happy 4th of July!

If you work on an oil rig, or any night job, or just don’t like loud noises, you likely won’t be seeing fireworks tonight so I’m including some. This is a lovely version of The Star Spangled Banner performed by Sandi Patti and The Boston Pops (click on bottom right corner after starting for full screen).

Today there are celebrations going on all over the country and for a very, very l o n g time, Heidi thought they were all celebrating her! Talk about a kid with great self-esteem! If you know Heidi at all, you know how appropriate it is that she was born on the 4th of July!
There was a star danced, and under that was I born. ~ William Shakespeare

You were such a cute little girl, Heidi. And what a wonderful friend you have in Debbie. I hope you have a fantastic birthday that keeps you smiling all day long.! Good job, Debbie! Luv U gals
Debbie– This was a surprise! Thanks for sharing with everyone, I think! This was quite a tribute. I have a blessed life and I’m extremely grateful to have this great adventure with you!
Yes indeed… Happy Birthday Heidi! What a great day to be born 🙂
Yes indeed. No one forgets my birthday, which still tickles me.
Happy Birthday Heidi! Hope you have a Wonderful Day with all smiles coming through your gate. 🙂
Thank you. So far it’s been busy, but people are usually cheery.
This is SO SO Wonderful! What a great tribute to friendship and life, and Freedom–to grow, change and BE HAPPY. Happy Birthday, Heidi–I love it that the whole country’s celebrating You! And to Debbie–WOW, what a find–I’m celebrating our forever friendship! God bless you gals–much love from your sis, Caddo Delight (quite the little fireworks show herself, sometimes)
Caddo– Thank you for the birthday wishes. I was discouragingly old before I knew the truth. History has never been a forte of mine, or I would have discovered it much earlier. I really did think I was the reason.
