Happy 4th.

Happy birthday merica. Stay safe and let's not burn anything down including meat on the grill.

 

Most unhappy 4th that I can remember ever having....

 

Is it ok to celebrate America? Lol

 

Yes it is.

 

Long live the free & the brave. Party safe everyone.

 

No you can't celebrate, you might offend some people! lol

 

Strangest 4th ever where I live. Seaside community and a vacation wonderland. We get a lot of Pittsburgh people every year. Normally us locals ***** and moan about the traffic and onslaught of tourist (although we enjoy the $$$$$ they bring) but since they decided against opening indoor dining and drinking, noticeable difference in the amount of people we have down here.

 

Happy 4th!
Stay safe!

 

For the 20th year in a row, we'll be watching fireworks from our balcony. Meanwhile, in San Diego, the beach parking lots are closed to try and limit access and the city cancelled the fireworks show on the bay.
On an odd note, I just noticed that the flag I put out every year (handed down from my father) only has 48 stars on it!

 

I have a 48 star flag handed down to me by my mother. The flag came home from WW2. My uncle did not.

 

We have a few still happening in eastern Ohio and some across the river in wv still going on. They have altered some for people to just stay in their cars and watch. Of course the neighbors down behind me have been shooting them for 3-4 days now.

 

That sucks

 

Happy Independence Day brothers and sisters... Tough times but we shall endure! Fire it up tonight. Be free and God Bless America!

 

I'm sure that's where this flag came from too. My dad came back, I have an uncle who didn't

 

Dogs are freaking out...

My Grandfather came back from ww2, he never talked about it.

 

Happy 4th JEH you old dog. Tell us some stories about WWII

 

God Bless your uncle. A true hero who sacrificed his life for all of us. We should all remember and recognize those sacrifices

 

He was a bombardier in the Pacific theater. They didn't return from their last mission. Assumed KIA. My oldest brother is named after him.

 

Your damn right it is!!! HAPPY 4TH OF JULY !!!

 

Same here, my dad came back but an uncle of mine did not. MIA, My sister is named after him.

 

Very similar. My uncle was a bomber pilot over Germany. They didn’t return from last scheduled mission. KIA. My older brother is named after him as well.

 

Just how old is that flag????? And if it's as old as I think how the hell is it still usable?????

 

I assume mine is the same. They were cotton and not well made to begin with. They needed a lot of them at the time.

75+ years old

 

I don't know it's age, at least 71 years old. It was part of my dad's stuff when he died. It only comes out once a year. It's faded but, no tears anywhere.
