Happy Friday - It's been a few weeks since I've participated in the
Blogger Challenge over on Lisa's blog so I decided to join in this week. The theme is Celebrating the 4th of July. I love this holiday and this year in our city it's even more meaningful. It's the 150th anniversary of the founding of our town. Plus this year we will also pause to remember one particular Hometown Hero who was recently killed in action in Afghanistan. Please take a moment if you can to visit my other blog to read about
Matt Fazzari.
