God Bless America, My Home, Sweet, Home

This is for those of us who are not venturing out to some public place to see the spectacular fireworks' displays across our country to say Happy Birthday U.S.A.



Not a bad video of a fireworks display since it is obviously done by just someone attending the festivities (or at least nearby enough to hear and see it all).

I am old enough to remember when we used to be able to hold our own sparklers and set off fire crackers in our back yard, and usually someone's family on the block actually had a set of fireworks that they tended to shoot off after sunset. Now it is illegal in most places to even use sparklers!

Well, here's the blessed Kate Smith singing God Bless America.


And to end with, Whitney Houston's national anthem classic.


Happy 234!

Ok, I am feeling bad I haven't included Marvin Gaye's version at a Laker game. Enjoy!
