America has reached 250 years, and I am grateful to be here, in the best country in the world. Thank every one of you who helps make this country a better place, those who have gone before and risked it all, and those who've paid the ultimate price to make the United States what we are today.
Happy Birthday America! Let Freedom Ring for all time!

A perfect pair. They just sing!! What is your background?
any details on this knife? It's a beaut!
An old big, tall and soft spoken farmer told me about it in a dream. He said it was somewhere down an old narrow winding, hilly dirt road, with gray weathered fence posts with rusty barbed wire, and an abundance of bluebirds singing. I would come upon an old guy that lived in a little weathered house at that sharp left hand turn, just as the woods began. He believed his name was Mounce and he wore those blue striped overalls and kept a tin of Prince Albert in the bib, occasionally rolling himself a cigarette and licking the paper. He was a nice old guy and talked to kids often, usually offering a bit of "wisdom". I should listen closely and remember his words.
I would come upon an abundance of " blue racer " snakes that would scurry out of the weeds and across the dirt road, but not to be afraid!
When I caught the smell of wood burning, coming from the chimney of the wood stove heated home on the hill, I would be nearing my destination. I might even, if my senses were keen, smell the faint scent of old country hams hanging in their smokehouse.
I would come to a really long steep hill, and I should hitch a ride with a man that had a familiar face, he would take me up the hill, fish-tailing in the mud, not to worry we would not get stuck, after our ascent the prize would be before me, all I had to do was enter the old country store![]()
