I'm going for the obvious one here, but because we truly are a global site, there are two questions. One for our American members, and one for our global members.
For the American members: How did you celebrate the 4th of July, if you did?
For the global members: Does your country have a similar holiday that celebrates national pride, and was there a single event that inspired it, like our signing of the Declaration of Independence?
I celebrated very minimally, although I did go out on the front porch to watch the city's fireworks display. I then came in and calmed Hekitty down again. I wasn't much looking forward to all the neighborhood idiots firing off stuff all night long, but about 20 minutes after the city display was over, a moderately heavy rain started. It's just slowing down, so most of the rowdies have trundled off to bed already.
