Happy 4th of July 2025 !








If you click here, it should play 
"It's a grand old flag!"


I love this song from Yankee Doodle Dandy
with George Cohan

Lyrics here:

You're a grand old flag,
You're a high flying flag
And forever in peace may you wave.
You're the emblem of
The land I love.
The home of the free and the brave.
Ev'ry heart beats true
'neath the Red, White and Blue,
Where there's never a boast or brag.
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
Keep your eye on the grand old flag.



Wishing you all a happy safe 4th of July!


Hugs, (virtually),

Rian

    1. Thanks, Dug. I did it a day early I know... but this 4th is a bit weird with things the way they are right now. However, I love the way this song makes me feel (so proud of what our country stands for - despite what is going on that is so hurtful.)

    1. We had crows in the neighborhood, but not in our yard... till I started calling them and putting peanuts out. Now they come every day.

    3. Yes, we're fine, Debbie. The Hill country had the flooding and it was awful. But daughter's area is ok... roads around her flooded, but not her property.
