Happy Birthday America!

Independence Day celebrates the birthday of the United States of America. Founded July 4th 1776, with the signing of the Declaration of Independence, America is celebrating it's 230th birthday this year (2006).

How are you celebrating? Picnics, Parades, Beaches, BBQs, Fireworks? I did my celebrating last evening. Here are a few photos for your enjoyment, taken in a park, on a lake, in the Finger Lakes region of NY. (Disclaimer, I'm no professional, but I was pleased with the pics my little camera took.)


Dusk falls and it wasn't long before the show began.




As always, my thoughts are with our troops and veterans who have experienced the real "bombs bursting in air".
