I know it's not possible to drown em out all day especially with probable familial obligations but a good buddy of mine that was army in Iraq, games on the 4th. A few of us usually play like a mmorpg, keeps the mind entertained and with noise canceling headphones he said its miles better. This year its overwatch.

Yeah I do the same thing. It helps a little but not enough. Stationed here in Colorado Springs right now and our neighborhood is relentless with the fireworks and they don’t stop popping until almost 0300.

Agree my friend. As a veteran I’ve seen places that you would still think are in the Middle Ages. While we’re not perfect here, we are one of the few countries that’s always striving to be perfect. We’re the greatest country in the world which why millions of people from all over the world are trying to come here every year for the American dream and we we can over come any obstacle if we put our mind to it. I love all my fellow Americans and all my fellow canes. Happy 4th of July gents and god bless America as we continue to strive to be the perfect nation for all, under god, Indivisible with liberty and justice for all. 👍🇺🇸❤

That’s hilarious because in my original post on SE Springs I was gonna say the hood because we live in the rundown part of town it seems. Me and wifey joke about it all the time.

Still crazy how expensive the "hood" is out here. I can't wait to graduate and move back to FLA.

It still isn't a real hood. Parts of 8th street and Nevada are a little grimey but not bad. Mainly white dudes and Meth.

While the storm clouds gather
Far across the sea,
Let us swear allegiance
To a land that’s free.
Let us all be grateful
For a land so fair,
As we raise our voices.
In a solemn prayer.
God bless America,
Land that I love,
Stand beside her and guide her
Through the night with a light from above;
From the mountains, to the prairies,
To the oceans white with foam,
God bless America,
My home, sweet home.
God bless America,
My home, sweet home

This Land Is Your Land
Words and Music by Woody Guthrie


This land is your land, this land is my land
From California to the New York island,
From the redwood forest to the Gulf Stream waters;
This land was made for you and me.


As I was walking that ribbon of highway
I saw above me that endless sky way;
I saw below me that golden valley;
This land was made for you and me.


I've roamed and rambled and I followed my footsteps
To the sparkling sands of her diamond deserts;
And all around me a voice was sounding;
This land was made for you and me.


When the sun came shining, and I was strolling,
And the wheat fields waving and the dust clouds rolling,
As the fog was lifting a voice was chanting:
This land was made for you and me.


As I went walking I saw a sign there,
And on the sign it said "No Trespassing."
But on the other side it didn't say nothing.
That side was made for you and me.


In the shadow of the steeple I saw my people,
By the relief office I seen my people;
As they stood there hungry, I stood there asking
Is this land made for you and me?


Nobody living can ever stop me,
As I go walking that freedom highway;
Nobody living can ever make me turn back
This land was made for you and me.
