Friendship, Flag and Freedom

Friends that drove a LONG way to be with our son at his graduation. It's always nice to have family at a special event like this - but I think it's even more special to have your friends.

Three quotes for today - One on Friendship, One on our Flag, and One on our Freedom.
Happy 4th of July!

Ah, how good it feels! The hand of an old friend. ~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Ev'ry heart beats true
'neath the Red, White and Blue,
~George M. Cohan

And I'm proud to be an American,
where at least I know I'm free.
And I won't forget the men who died,
who gave that right to me.
~Lee Greenwood
