Happy Independence Day

235 years ago. An act of bravery and sacrifice.

A document so powerful in its brevity and clarity.

But remember that I am a monarch, too, so there better not be any more talk of rebellion.

Or you will really see some fireworks.

Happy Independence Day!

    oh and you’re welcome on that cat stacking game. i was addicted to it 10 years ago! i’m stronger now… and will only play for 6-12 hours at a time. which could be why i don’t play anymore…

    well we can pretend all we want there’s a democracy, but when there’s a girl sibe in the house, well, it’s a monarchy…

    Great Patriotic post! And great pictures!

    Hope you are all having a fantastically fun Independence Day! And perhaps you pups will come across a grill that has been “accidentally” knocked over with steaks on it. ;->

    Never challenge an alpha dog, no matter how awesome the document is.
