Wednesday photographs on Friday… what to say? Wednesday (july 4th) was busy, busy… as was yesterday (recovering from Wednesday : )  Here are a few photos of our celebratory fireworks in Williamsburg … & then for my Canadian buddies who also celebrated their national day this week, Happy Canada Day (+5)…

My brother& i were blessed to visit Prince Edward Island a few years back on Canada Day – ’twas a grand time, all together ! : )

Back to the 4th of july… & America’s Independence…

“…We hold these truths to be self-evident; that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights; that among these rights are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness…”

Thomas Jefferson, The Declaration of Independence

“While we are contending for our own liberty, we should be very cautious not to violate the rights of conscience in others, ever considering that God alone is the judge of the hearts of men, and to Him only in this case they are answerable. ” 

George Washington, 1775

grace, peace & national celebrations
