The fourth of July is the birthday of our nation. Today, we celebrate and enjoy the freedom that comes with the event that made this day so special.

Thomas Jefferson, is the author of the Declaration of Independence. He led a committee that crafted the declaration between June 11-28, 1776. Jefferson and other discontented representatives from the thirteen colonies, voted and approved it on July 4, 1776. The document declared freedom for the 13 colonies from British rule. It currently resides in the Exhibition Hall of the National Archive in Washington, D.C.

Did you know? The Declaration of Independence was not signed by all representatives until August, 1776. To make it official, John Hancock, President of the Continental Congress signed it. Now, can anyone guess where the saying "put your John Hancock on it" came from!?!

Today, we enjoy the benefits of the freedom which the framers signed and ultimately fought for. For us, it is a time for baseball, hot dogs and family picnics. Summer is in full swing and life is good.

This one was frustrating. I remember looking for this one before. I remember looking in the wrong area before. Then, as we neared the GZ, I remembered this area, too. Then we found the container and sure enough, there is my stamp on the log. I must have found this after DNFing it in the past, but didn't log it. Oh well. This is the 4th one I've found (for a second time) this week.
Today @WindAtMyBack and I went on a venture to find an astronomical amount of caches. We ended up with 13... more of a good luck/bad luck number of caches. But we ended the night finding a few caches with @2lablovers and then Sonic for drinks. Great night!
