I don’t live in America.

I have visited America many, many times.

I’m Canadian, so we’re kind of neighbours. Hey neighbour (yes, here in Canada we have ‘u’ in weird places…don’t ask unless you really want to know).

Here are just a few random things I love about America:
  The Walking Dead,
Captain America, X-Files, Heroes, Family Guy, Star Wars…

Ok, you had some international help with some of these, including Canada, but you’re doin’ stuff and I think that’s great…
I could go on and on, but you get the point. Feel free to tell me if I forgot anything, I got tired.

Parts of America are also stunningly beautiful…and many of the people are amazing.

You’ve also done some very, very naughty things, America, which we won’t dwell on today because you’re celebrating Independence Day, and perhaps watching Independence Day between BBQing, fireworks, being patriotic, watching Dead White and Blue the latest AMC The Walking Dead marathon, spending time with family and friends, and drinking (and hopefully not driving).

Like any neighbour there are things we like and don’t like about each other, but mostly we get along quite well.

Happy Independence Day,

America!!!

      5. Awh, thanks, Donna! It is getting dark here now, so I think they’ll be starting soon and I’ll hold the camera up to the window! Maybe I’ll get a good photo with some luck! *LOL* I’ll post it for sure if I do!!! xo

      1. Yes, I was. It feels good to get thoughts out of my cluttered head and down on paper to share with others. 🙂

      4. Man is the only animal that blushes, or needs to…something like that, Mark Twain, of course. Enjoy the glow… 🙂

    1. We have, at times at great tax credits so tons of American stuff is filmed here, also, my I humbly offer fantastic actors and scenery. Good neighbours. 🙂 You’re being very generous, I’d have trouble sharing Jensen Ackles, hot TV boyfriends are hard to come by… 😉

      2. Oh that kind of share, sure got it…I kind of figured that, but it’s nice to have clarification, just to know where we stand. But I can still look, right? 🙂

    1. Thank you so much, this means so much. I’m honoured. Horribly behind on awards so I don’t know when I’ll get to it, but very honoured. Thank you. 🙂
