"Second to
the right, and straight on till morning" is how Peter Pan describes the
location of Neverland to Wendy. To that, I might add: Sleep a spell, then on
and on through the day and all through the night and Neverland will be reached
"at the time of sunrise."
Those directions
are adequate for me to tell you how to find this place, as well, allowing you
brief intervals to stop for food and gasoline. Drive a like-distance westward
from there and you will be able to watch sunrises and sunsets over what once
was known as the Sea of Magellan.
To turn right is
to proceed north where Canada awaits. Left is south with Mexico in the
near-distance and the meeting of two oceans at Cape Horn far, far away. To make
a U-turn is to backtrack to your point of origin.
Decisions/decisions/decisions
.... decisions will have to wait because today is Independence Day 2021 and a
time for thought and reflection ....
In Congress, July 4, 1776
"The unanimous
Declaration of the thirteen united States of America, When in the Course of
human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political
bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of
the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of
Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires
that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
"We hold these truths to
be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their
Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and
the pursuit of Happiness."

Beautiful Sea of Magellan.
Oh there are soo many great places to visit.
I should like to go there in an cabin cruiser ,wow that would be something :))
I like both the videos but the last one is one to think about!
About the pledge allegiance
"To the flag
of the United States of America,
and to the Republic for which it stands:
one Nation under God,
indivisible,
With Liberty and Justice for all". I agree in the words if they could be true.. But not with that Nazi Salud..Why had they do such a thing?
But it seems to me,today is a hard world referring too liberty and justice..Many are afraid to tell the truth .Specially researchers.The reasons for the reluctance are complexity, "tabloidization" and fear of provocation are the main reasons why some people do not convey facts.So a free America?I do not think so I think money matters the most.But what do i know I am only a jente fra Norge!
Ha en fin sundag i Amerika
Happy 4th Of July

Do they still say the pledge in school classrooms anymore? I'll have to ask my grandchildren. That's an interesting version of "apology"....
Happy Independence Day, Fram!
It seems to me --THE MAN has gone on a vaccation!!Yippy! :)))

Greetings from London.
Stunningly beautiful landscape.
The image of water doubles the beauty.
I can rise high and see into the distance.
Warm summer days!
