The 4th of July
The 4th of July is on its way once again. But what can we do as American’s to celebrate this holiday and actually remember all the blood, sweat and tears and all the colorful historical people who became famous in the area of the Revolutionary War.
Some of the most colorful impressive people who came out of this time in 1776 was George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, Betsy Ross, and Thomas Jefferson.
Independence Day or the 4th of July is the Day the Declaration of Independence was signed. This document is the foundation on which our government has been founded. The 4th of July is the time of family picnics, family reunions, and fireworks.
We the American people wanted our freedom from England’s large arm across the ocean. We fought and we won our freedom.
