It’s the grand and glorious Fourth of July— the day Americans celebrate their national day not with shows of military might or governmental pomp, but with back yard barbeques and trips to the park, the pool, or the beach for a picnic and games.  I think this kind of celebration is rather fitting and I always enjoy it.

So, off I go to shut down my computer and go play in the real world for a couple of days.  To all my fellow Americans, Happy July Fourth, and to all my fellow hat lovers, whoever and wherever in the world you are, I say  happy summer.  Have a wonderful week and join in the celebration if you care to. There’s enough cake for everybody:-)
