Happy Fourth of July Everyone

Despite the efforts of some of our misguided Senators, the US flag still flies proudly behind American ships.  I think it is important that we retain control of our Merchant Marine even if it means paying a little more for that privilege.

I was looking to get a picture of a flag behind a ship and the Herbert C. Jackson gave me that opportunity.  It's twice as nice when you can get the flag across the river in the picture.

At any rate, we as a nation still have quite a bit to celebrate this Fourth of July.  So enjoy your barbecues, baseball and fireworks but do so safely.
