Wordless Wednesday

WW is a simple blog post featuring a photo which conveys a message that speaks for itself without using words.

For all the rule breakers, of which I am one, please feel free to add all the words you want.

Happy 4th of July America

Graphic showing the outline of the United States of America filled with the American flag colors, celebrating the 250th anniversary from 1776 to 2026.

On July 4, 1776, the Declaration of Independence was adopted and the United States separated itself from Great Britain. This document declared that all men are โ€œcreated equal, that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable Rights, and that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.โ€ With these powerful and moving words, our forefathers formed a brand new nation with a vision of freedom and democracy that would forever change history.

  • In 1776, there were 2.5 million people living in the new nation. Today there are over 318 million.
  • There are more than 30 towns nationwide that have the word โ€œLibertyโ€ in their names.
  • Approximately 150 million hotdogs are consumed on the Fourth of July.
  • Around $675 million dollars will be spent by consumers for fireworks on the Fourth of July. Source: The Fact Base

Lil’ Bit loves to sleep in her cat tree during the day. Zane caught her sleepy eyes and she’s not happy being awakened just for a photo. We’re happy about it though.
