July 4 is the birthday of the United States of America. It is the anniversary of the day on which the Declaration of Independence was adopted by the Continental Congress - July 4, 1776. Independence Day was first observed in Philadelphia on July 8, 1776.
July is a special month to our family. On July 2, 1997, Nick, accompanied by his grandmother, came to the States to live with us in Santa Cruz. In July 2002, we adopted our Chippy on the steps of Santa Cruz Main Post Office. It is also a birthday month shared by my mother, nephew and myself.
