Reading MA July 4 2012: As we prepare for watching the parade and fireworks here in Boston, where independence all started for the Americans, you can't help but wonder at the incredible changes that have occurred as a result of the efforts of those who have sought freedom.
Good and bad, what a remarkable history these United States has had so far.
Visiting my brother-in-law and his family in Massachusetts has allowed us to gain a quick peak into the significance of this day to Americans.
And what fun for our own young children to learn a little more about the other culture and history from which they have sprung. Happy birthday America!
US highlights so far: making cookies with grandma; bbq with wonderful friends; trampolines; mowing the grass; Freedom Trail; happy birthday three-year-old.
The US adventure 2012 rolls on.
This is a test comment,as there seems to be a problem with this function (TA Boston July 6 1020)
