Fourth of July Open Thread

What are your favorite things to do in Howard County on the Fourth of July?

While we all enjoying time with friends and family, it is also a good time to reflect on both the courage of our Founding Fathers and the courage of other people who stand up for the right to select who governs them, such as the Iranian people have been doing for the last two weeks.

The National Archives has a transcription of the Declaration of Independence online.

Howard County is the home of some of the descendants of Charles Carrroll, one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence.

When I click on Alan's name, I get this anonymous sounding message, "The Blogger Profile you requested cannot be displayed. Many Blogger users have not yet elected to publicly share their Profile."

I don't think Alan's point was that no one should be anon, his point that you should act like an adult. The first two anon comments are just antagonistic.

I haven't ever been to the Lakefront Activities because I feel they are for real Columbians. We have only been here 10 years.

We get together with friends.

There is nothing about that statement that is not completely absurd.

Really? Having been treated like an outsider because I was not born and raised here or not one of the Pioneers, I chose my words carefully.

Happy Independence Day to all, whether Pioneers or no. We should all be Columbians...

macsmom- they can only make you feel like an outsider if you let them. Sounds like you are letting them. Besides, people from all over the county (or world for that matter) can attend the lakefront activities.

Founding members of any group tend to be snobs. In this case the good new is they are now old snobs and just getting older . . .
