I’m not typically sentimental, but I just can’t resist this today. I still remember the first time I visited the Lincoln Memorial. I think I was 10 years old, but it took my breath away. You’ve got to give a listen to this girl’s rendition of the Star Spangled Banner. I dare you not to tear up.

With all the turmoil in today’s politics, it seems like a good time to remember the principals on which our country was founded.

I hope you have a happy and safe Fourth!
