Happy Birthday America!!

What a magnificent day for all Americans!  A day that reminds us once a year what our nation stands for and to remember those who took us here!!

The Fuller family had a wonderful July 4th!  It started this morning with a GREAT parade and we were honored to be in the reviewing stands!! The perfect place to watch the parade from!! We were fortunate there was shade and NO rain!!!  There are lots of parade photos below.. We ALL loved the performing bands, dancers and balloon floats!!!  BUT it was HOT!  Kudos to all the parade performers who endured for our enjoyment!!! 

After the parade, we were taken out to see Mount Vernon, home of George and Martha Washington!  It was the perfect thing to do on this important anniversary of our nation!  It was nice to remember how important Washington was in our nation's development! 

After a considerable effort to get back to the hotel (all streets around the White House were blocked off), we came back for a brief rest, showers and a fantastic dinner.  The piece de resistance, however, was the fireworks display from the balcony of our hotel!  WOW!  (As Gaby would say)!  What a PERFECT July 4th celebration!!!  More tomorrow!! 


































































Happy Independence Day!! May we never forget the reason we celebrate this day!!  Thank you to all who made this day possible!
