The
4th of July is the day we honor the birth of America. It is rich
with many traditions.
I
have many fond memories of my own 4th of July celebrations. I grew
up in a small town in New Jersey. My Dad was a factory worker and
we always took our vacation the first two weeks of July when the factory
closed.
They
always rented a bungalow for those two weeks in Seaside Heights, New Jersey.
We usually took some aunts and cousins with us and always had a house full.
We
would spend our days on the beach and our evenings on what was then an
awesome boardwalk. Rides, games and food galore. A child and
teenager's delight.
