Happy July 4th, 2024

Growing up in a small steel town, July 4th was celebrated with gusto.  Picnics and parades were standard fare.  At the time, I knew it was to celebrate independence from the British Empire.  Frankly, that knowledge was frequently lost in the reveling accompanying the holiday.  

It may be more important today than in many decades that all citizens recognize that independence can be curtailed by political events.  

Listen to the candidates and base your vote on which one will enhance your independence and which one may curtail it.  

Your vote is important to maintain our way of life!  

July 4th is the perfect time to remember brave souls who gave their lives to give us independence. 

Don't squander it, learn about your candidates and vote in the fall!

The photos are not what I would consider decent from a digital camera but compared to my last phone/camera, they are much better. The phone has a slot for a micro sd memory card. I popped a 2gb card in there for saving my photos. I have not been able to find a way to default the photos to the memory card. You have to manually move them. I haven’t given up and perhaps in a software upgrade there will be a way to get them to the card without moving them manually. Getting them off of the phone is interesting. If you don’t buy Samsung’s charging/data cable, you can send them to yourself and get them on your pc that way. You
