INDEPENDENCE DAY!

Hope that you all have a great Independence Day! Remember all the parades we marched in (sweated through)!

Remember why we celebrate this holiday.

This year, it was 100 degrees in the Chicago area .. 101 in Arlington Heights where I live. The parade was a killer .. saw the Cavaliers there this year. Marching in THAT heat is definitely NOT fun.
