The actual Independence day is July 2, 1776. It was on that date the 13 colonies were legally separated from Gr Britain.As John Adams wrote to his wife:“The second day of July, 1776, will be the most memorable epoch in the history of America. I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival.”Have a great 4th, and remember Independence day Monday. ;^)
Happy Indepence Day America. Let’s all celebrate our freedom and respect those men and women fighting in the Middle East for our freedom. God bless them all.
Yes LEGALIt was July 2 that the 13 colonies became legally separated from GB. It was on that date the 2nd Continental Congress voted for the Lee Resolution, AKA the Resolution of Independence. The Declaration of Independence was written 2 days later to formally announce the action.It had already happened by that time.

She certainly deserves a break, after holding that torch up up everyday for years.

Chief Justice Roberts had better not answer the door until she gets back to that island.

Under our current circumstances, if I were Lady Liberty, I would take Independence Day celebrations off as well.
