“One flag, one land, one heart, one hand, one nation evermore!"
—Oliver Wendell Holmes
“Liberty has been planted here; and the more it is attacked, the more it grows and flourishes.”
—Samuel Sherwood
It’s hard to believe that Lady Liberty is celebrating 248 years of freedom this 4th of July. I must say she doesn’t look a day over 200:)
Independence Day is a moment of reflection to honor the past, embrace the present and to shape the future.
Note: Many of the photos were taken at San Jose’s Rose, White & Blue Fourth of July Parade and Festival (2023)
