Happy birthday, America!!!
233 years ago, we sent those greedy, tax-happy Brits packing. *g* Hah! I hope everyone has a safe and fun holiday.
On this date in 1847, James Bailey of Ringling Brothers, Barnum & Bailey Circus fame was born.
On this date in 1885, movie mogul Louis B. Mayer was born. He was the co-founder of MGM.
And on this date in 1914, director D. W. Griffith began work on his extremely controversial film Birth of a Nation. This movie introduced new filmmaking techniques and was considered Hollywood’s first “blockbuster”.
We’re going on a little jaunt up into Missouri here in a bit in search of peaches. Should be fun.
Tonight, I’m not sure what I’ll be watching.
Reading: Now I’m reading Death Walked In by Carolyn Hart. This is the next to most recent Death on Demand book.


This seems like the Birthday of many great people, and Country! *G*
Have fun finding those peaches!
Have a wonderful Independence Day!
