INDEPENDENCE DAY

The irony of being in Britain, on a day we celebrate gaining American independence from Britain. All the while, wrapped up in the middle of Brexit, and Britain determining their own independence from the European Union. What a time to be alive people.

For all of those at home BBQing by the pool, floating down the Russian River, and lighting illegal fireworks in the street: I envy you.

Enjoy all of the freedoms we, as Americans, are granted. Rather than taking them for granted.

Happy 4th of July!
