To hopefully ease your mind a little, though we celebrate independence on July 4th, there really is no antagonism expressed toward Great Britain. The focus is on freedom and the ability we have to pursue our dreams. <br /><br />(I understand your comment, though. A few years ago, I visited Hiroshima, Japan. I wondered how the visitor's center would explain the bombing of Hiroshima, and was so touched by the matter-of-fact displays, and the hope for a peaceful future.)Kristihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14136276061114462192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6085311167627297994.post-18223546701854583952013-07-06T16:14:23.271-06:002013-07-06T16:14:23.271-06:00Wow.

Thanks for the reminder that we are indeed lucky and that much of it has to do with the sacrifices men like your grandfather made.

I think my Mum's got some old pics tucked away someplace but I don't really know their stories.<br /><br />Thanks for linking up with us for this. Do you know any good resources which show in a reasonably unantagonistic way, why Independence Day is such a big deal and what went on that led up to it? We don't get taught about it at all here, rather learn by osmosis that July 4th is a big deal.Lizzihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17480448062269641320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6085311167627297994.post-64666940140205173992013-07-06T14:35:10.750-06:002013-07-06T14:35:10.750-06:00I really like this week's list!

There was a stiff wind blowing, and the poppies had curled up on themselves, trying to stay warm (much like we were doing as we stood on the high desert). Your great grandpa's pic is particularly awesome!Dyanne @ I Want Backsieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04946323852124525597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6085311167627297994.post-87548468712921822782013-07-06T11:52:49.799-06:002013-07-06T11:52:49.799-06:00Very nice and much to be thankful for!Very nice and much to be thankful for!Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08919793216222224648noreply@blogger.com
