Tomorrow is July 4th, also known as Independence Day in the U.S. Founded on unalienable rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, the Declaration of Independence was adopted declaring the thirteen original colonies independent of British rule, marking the birth of the United States as a nation.

Across the country, there will be celebrations with fireworks, parade’s, cookouts, picnics and spending time with family and friends.

However you decide to spend the day, I hope it is exactly what you had hoped for. Happy Independence Day!
