Happy Independence Day!

 


It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery. ~Galatians 5:1


Racer, and the whole gang at The Glade, want to wish you all a Happy and Blessed Independence Day!

May we all give thanks for our God-given rights and for all who risk their lives to protect them.

  3. Oh, I love all the patriotism exhibited today! We watched the West Point Band perform on Hoda & Jenna (show); that music always brings tears to my eyes. I hope you and Danny are enjoying a lovely time today -- not far from the AC!
