First, we went to read the Declaration of Independence at Borough Hall. Americans used to have a tradition in their towns of reading the Declaration on Independence Day, as a whole town. Our town historian, Kevin Coyne (ignominiously fired by the NYT in cutbacks) has been organizing this event for several years. It is an amazing site to behold a hundred different residents line up to read the words that started the Revolution.
Later we hung out on the porch
Ben was asleep for most of it
Zach enjoyed the hose
And we had a relaxing lunch with Ben's Godparents
