Happy 4th of July America
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 “created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable Rights, and that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.” 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 “Liberty” 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

Happy 4th of July to you, Sandee, and Happy 250th birthday to the U.S.A.! 🎉
Thank you for hosting Wordless Wednesday. Have a great day! 🤗
Happy Canada Day to you, Debbie. Love and hugs. 🙂
Happy hot dog day to your sweet family. We have Bastille Day on the 14th but we’ll have our July 4th G and T and toast you all.
Happy Bastille Day to you, Suzanne. 🙂
I wish a Happy 4th of July to you, dear Sandee. And I wish you a fine
July, because I’ll take a pause, starting with the next week!
Happy WW, my friend. Hugs and love!❤️😘
The month is starting off wonderfully. Happy day and rest of the week, my sweet friend. Love and hugs. 🙂
Wishing you a happy Fourth, Sandee. Our day will probably be quiet but we hope to watch some of the celebrations on TV. This is a great country and we still have much to celebrate. Alana ramblinwitham
I agree with you, Alana. It’s a great country indeed. We need to focus on the positive and not on the negative as with anything. Happy day and rest of the week. Hugs. 🙂
We really ARE wordless on Wednesday since we don’t blog on Tuesday or Wednesday any longer BUT we still like to visit!!
Hugs, Pam and Teddy
I love each and every one of your visits. Love and hugs to you and lots of scritches to handsome Teddy. 🙂
What interesting facts and it’s so sad that so many $$ are spent on fireworks as so many pets and wildlife are afraid.
I hear you. Our Angel Little Bit hated the fireworks and would beg us to make them stop. Our kitties hide. I hear you. 🙂
Feliz dia 4 de julho, Sandee! Tudo de bom!
beijos , chica
Thank you, Chica. Have a fabulous day and rest of the week. Hugs. 🙂
That is a lot of hot dogs. I can’t help wondering what all those men who signed the declaration of independence would think of modern day America.
I’ve not had a hot dog in a very long time. They just don’t agree with me anymore, but I sure loved a good hot dog in my younger years. Big hug to you and lots of scritches to Gibbs. 🙂
Interesting facts, Sandee, and a happy Fourth of July to you, and yours.
The hot dog one didn’t surprise me one bit. Hamburgers and hot dogs just go with the forth of July. Love and hugs, Eugenia. 🙂
Happy 4th of July, Greetings.
Great post.
Thank you so much. Happy day and rest of the week. 🙂
Happy 250th, America!
Such a milestone to celebrate, and I love how you paired it with those fun facts. Wishing you and everyone a joyful Fourth filled with laughter, good food, and plenty of sparkle. ✨
Thank you, Veronica. We’ll have a quiet day and that’s good with us. We’ll stay with our kitties so we’re here when all the fireworks start. 🙂
We are happy to celebrate our country’s big birthday but we sure wish fireworks would go away. Mom says this weekend will be a nightmare for us with all the fireworks most likely day and night. Sadly, it makes the holiday no fun and Mom will not be able to celebrate because we can’t be left alone when some of us are so terrified.
I’m with you on the fireworks. Our kitties don’t like them either and they hid most of the night. Our Angel Little Bit hated them. Most pups do. Happy day and rest of the week. Scritches to the precious pups. 🙂
Hope you have a Happy 4th of July! XO
I hope you have a happy 4th of July, too. Scritches to the kitties and a big hug to you. 🙂
Happy Independence day Sandy! God Bless America
Happy Independence Day, Faythe. Yes on God Bless America. Love and hugs. 🙂
Those are interesting and that sure is a lot of hot dogs!
I had no idea about the hot dogs. Happy day and rest of the week, Terry. Scritches to the kitties. 🙂
What a lot of celebrating. I pray you and Mr. Zane have a wonderful celebration however you like to do it. Hugs to the two of you and scritches to Lil’ Bit and Squeaker.
We’ll have a quiet day as we always do. You and Mr. Sweetie have a fabulous day and rest of the week. Love and hugs. 🙂
Been reading/listening to books that really deep-dive into processes and people who played roles in our Revolution…on both sides of the Atlantic.
Canada did it differently; they waited it out, and gained their independence without bloodshed, so we’ve got to give them props for that.
Happy Canada Day!
Some do it better. Happy Canada Day. Scritches to the kitties. 🙂
Happy birthday, America!!
Yes, Happy Birthday America. 🙂
Happy 250th Birthday America! God bless us all!
Yes God bless us all. 🙂
Happy 250th, Sandee.
Of course, not you personally!
You made me laugh out loud. I’m almost that old. Happy day and rest of the week. Happy Canada Day. 🙂
Happy Independence Day, 4 July, Sandee. Thank you for the great facts and interesting trivia…that’s a lot of hot dogs!
Thank you for your work on the blog hops. Happy Wordless Wednesday to you.
Much love and light to you, dear friend.
I love my weekly hops and I love the folks that play along. Happy Wordless Wednesday and rest of the week. Love and hugs, my sweet friend. 🙂
Thank you, dear friend. Blessings to you.
Happy 4th! That’s a LOT of hot dogs!
That’s a lot of hot dogs for sure. Happy day and rest of the week. Scritches to the kitties. 🙂
Happy 4th of July!
Same to you, Yvonne. Have a great day. Scritches to the kitties. 🙂
Lovely Sandee…thank you for the facts too.
Our county has ~ 1 million in it
Hugs Cecilia
That’s a lot of folks. We’re about half of that. Love and hugs to you and Kit and scritches to the precious kitties. 🙂
Happy 4th to one and all. Have a blessed holiday celebration.
Perfectly said. You and yours have a blessed holiday celebration, too. 🙂
I have never felt more ambivalent about celebrating the 4th of July myself than I do this year.
I’ve not felt more blessed about celebrating the 4th of July. Happy day and rest of the week. 🙂
Happy Fourth to you and Zane ~ Happy 250th to the USA ~ Hugs,

Hugs and love to you from me and Ziggy ~ xo
Beautifully said. Love and hugs to you and Ziggy. 🙂
Those are some remarkable statistics about the Fourth of July, Sandee. Just think if even a tiny fraction of the money spent on fireworks was channeled into saving lost and traumatized pets after the 4th’s fireworks…it blows my mind.
I agree with you. How about 50%? Our babies hate fireworks. Love and hugs to you and lots of scritches to handsome Wilson. 🙂
Thanks for linking us up. We were on our way here when we saw your comment of Sawyer & Stinky’s birthday post. And of course it took another 150 years after the Declaration for women to get the vote. Too bad that document didn’t say “all people.” Hope you have a happy and safe fourth. 🇺🇸 XOCK, angels Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid & Sawyer, Lisbeth, Calista Jo, Cooper Murphy, Kizmet, Audrey, Raleigh, Gibbs & Tali
You’re welcome for the link. All people can vote now as it should be. Happy Wordless Wednesday and rest of the week. Scritches to all the kitties, a smooch to Cooper Murphy and a big hug to you. 🙂
Happy 4th of July, Sandee!
Love and hugs, my friend. xo
Happy 4th of July to you and yours, Kymber. Thank you for playing along. Love and hugs. 🙂
Good facts to know! Wishing you a safe and Happy 4th of July ♥
Wishing you a safe and happy 4th of July, too. Hugs. 🙂
OMC that’s a lot of hot dogs, Sandee…MOL…Extra Double Pawkisses for a Happy Day and week ahead to you, the kitties and Zane too and we wish you all a wonderful fourth of July. Hope the kitties aren’t bothered by the fireworks too much. Stay safe🙏🏼🐾😽💞
Thank you so much. We hope the kitties do better this year than last with all the loud fireworks. Double Pawkisses to you both and a big hug to Granny. Happy Canada Day. 🙂
Happy Canada Day to all our loved Canadian friends…and soon…it will be firecracker time here. The 4th of July. Independence Day.
Happy Canada Day and Happy 4th of July. Scritches to the kitty. 🙂
Happy 250th birthday 🙂
Thank you, Klara. Have a great day and rest of the week. 🙂
Happy 250th Independence Day! I remember celebrating the 200th, what a fun time!
I remember too and now here we are. Happy 250th. Scritches to the pups and my very best to the both of you. 🙂
Happy 4th of July, Sandee! That’s a heck of a lot of money spent on fireworks. We are not fans of them, as they are so frightening for animals and many of our courageous veterans.
We never buy fireworks. Our babies hate them. 🙂
Nice facts. Sadly, too many people don’t know them.
You’re right about that. Happy Wednesday and rest of the week. 🙂
Cool factoids about our nation!
I thought about going with hotdogs, but wieners don’t sit right on my tummy. Instead, I’m making BBQ pork! :p
Have a safe and happy Independence Day, Sandee!
BBQ pork with coleslaw on a burger bun. Delicious. A great choice. Hot dogs don’t sit will with me anymore either. Love and hugs, my friend. 🙂
Have a Happy 4th celebration.
It will be a quiet day here. Happy day and rest of the week. 🙂
Happy 4th of July – I was there for the bicentenary. Hope you have a lovely celebration.
Thank you, Lydia. Happy day and rest of the week. 🙂
You know, 250 yrs is not really that long ago, if you think about it. And I do remember the 200 bday, I was 16 and just like dressing for themed weddings, and Halloween, I dressed for that Bday.
I remember the 200th. I was 20. 🙂
Happy Birthday USA, GB misses you!
Interesting facts and figures, Sandee.
Thanks, Keith. Happy day and rest of the week. 🙂
Hope you’re having the most epic celebrations ever!!! Thank mew for adding our links, Sandee, mew are wonderful! 🐾✨🎈🎊🎈✨🐾
We had a most wonderful day yesterday. Quiet until the neighborhood fireworks. Love and hugs all around. 🙂
when I was 6 years old, which is my first memories of my grandmothers home here where I live now, the population was 34,704 and today is 400,000 when I moved here in 1984, it was 174,305 so and now we are one big city, Tampa, Sarsaota, Palmetto, Bradenton, and St Pete Clearwater. driving we don’t know when we cross into another city and the total for Tampa Bay is 4 million, not the town I loved my whole life, more people and cars that I ever imagined.
Same has happened here. All the small towns around are now part of the big town. Traffic is horrible here, too. Happy day and week, my friend. Scritches to Beau. 🙂
My husband and I dreaded what seemed inevitable terrorist attack(s). Praise God nothing happened, or was thwarted by the brave men and women protecting us. Be well, my dear!
Amen to that. I’m sure there are things about this we’ll never know. That’s a good thing. Hugs. 🙂
