Remembering on the 4th

My God! How little do my countrymen know what precious blessings they are in possession of, and which no other people on earth enjoy!

~Thomas Jefferson
Paracord Paul and the 4th of July


After work, preparing for the 4th, we put out more American Flags — Old Glory flies proudly 24/7 at our compound.

While we are all having BBQs with family and friends and blowing off fireworks, let’s take a moment and remember what a great county the United States of America is. So many seem to have forgotten about our exceptionalism and what makes our Nation great. We haven’t. Have you?

Thanks to the men and women who have fought for our country, we can celebrate our independence on the 4th of July with fun, food, family, and fireworks.

Today, before we cut out for the 4th, we will donate to each of the following organizations to let them know their sacrifices and ongoing efforts are appreciated:


Donate to the Wounded Warriors Project
Donate to Paralyzed Veterans of America

Can you chip in? Please give what you can to help the brave men and women who have sacrificed so much for the freedoms we all enjoy today. We owe them our sincere and eternal gratitude — and Independence.
