Just me and my adventures in life. Life is an adventure and I try to have fun. I love being out in the world, taking pictures and being able to share them with people who come across my little space on the internet.
Thanks for stopping by and peace be with you.

Music Monday: Songs About America
Music Monday: Songs about America for the Fourth of July.
A Super Bowl Classic:
And my favorite song about this great county:
I hope everybody has a good and safe Fourth of July.
Every time I hear the song, "This Land Is Your Land" I always think singing time in the 4th grade, as this one a favorite for us to sing. "There's a Mighty Wind a Blowin" is new-to-me. The tune is catchy and uplifting plus it's great fun to see all the stars pickin' & grinin' as they share this song with the audience. Great song selection of patriotism and American pride. Thanks for dancing with the 4M gang today. Have a safe and fun 4th, my friend!
"This Land is Your Land" was a staple of my day camp experiences (in the early 1960's) it was years before I knew the story behind it. Great selections and wishing you a happy and safe 4th.
Hi Patrick, Great fun songs here! I love This Land Is Your Land: brings back fond memories of my youth. I never heard There's a Mighty Wind a'Blowin. I liked it! And Neil Diamond's America is always a great favorite. I had Ray and Bruce in mine too. All your songs are great picks for this holiday celebration. Have a fabulous 4th!
What lovely reminder songs you share. Thanks so much. Enjoyed my visit. :)

I love your selections for today, Patrick! Makes me want to go out and light up some fireworks, or enjoy a picnic at a local park.
