To all my American friends.

Don't forget that George Washington's family was originally from around my area and in fact the name "Washington" is derived from the old name for the area. They have a little celebration at Washington Old Hall every year on this day.

Thanks Dave,. I spent it at my Mom & Dads eating Kibby, the same thing you and Wayne enjoyed at their home. It's also their 54th anniversary and came home and shot my M-14 and AK rifles a few times.(It's a redneck thang)
