HAPPY BIRTHDAY AMERICA
What is the 4th of July, only another excuse to over-eat and entertain family and guests? Or is it a time to celebrate our wonderful country and remember all the sacrifices made by the few to keep the many free?
Most people in the United States celebrate the 4th of July, but do we celebrate the holiday because of its great importance to our country?
Do we take the time to remember back to those early years in July 1776 when the patriots put their lives and liberty as naught, sacrificing everything dear to them, only to hold up in Philadelphia in “Independence Hall”, a stifling hot boarded-up meeting hall, and not leave until they gave us liberty for all. Benjamin Franklin was asked by a woman as he left the hall that last day.
“Mr. Franklin what have you given us?”
He replied “A republic…if you can keep it”
If you are looking for a hero any of these men would fill the bill, but we do have several heroes living among us. In thanks for the many sacrifices made by our troops and their families we would like to invite any military families to come and stay with us ..ANY ROOM, Sunday through Wednesday for only $99.00 in the month of July. It would be our honor.
We thank you for your service to us.
Celebrate as you never have before, but remember those that have made the sacrifice for us and made this day A GREAT DAY!
