Happy July 4th!

I always loved watching School House Rock during Saturday morning cartoons. But while the above clip gives you the history behind Independence Day here's a little black history for you:

On July 4, 1827, slavery was abolished in New York State.

Have a happy and safe holiday!

Happy Independence Day!

Happy July 4th!

If it's going to rain in your area this evening (as it will here in New York City) you might want to catch your fireworks here tonight instead of going out.

Enjoy your Holiday!
