Ah, July 4th. Tomorrow. Tomorrow we celebrate our independence. But did you know we're actually off by two days?
The Second Continental Congress passed the resolution on independence July 2, 1776. Our actual Independence Day was yesterday. So what's the big deal about the 4th?
It was on the that day in 1776 that Congress approved the Declaration of Independence.
Six of one, half dozen of the other? Perhaps. Or maybe we should go all out American and recognize both days.
It's just a thought. The stores would love it though.
