Happy Independence Day!
Yes, I know it is only July 2nd.
Did you know that the 2nd Continental Congress voted on July 2nd, 1776 to accept a resolution that the thirteen colonies of America were independent of the British rule?
It took two more days for the wording of the formal declaration to be approved.
Our Independence Day Holiday has been celebrated two days late ever since.
