Independence Day

230 years and counting. It's truly amazing what our Founding Fathers created. The Declaration of Independence included some of the most moving words ever written. For me, I think the most powerful are in the last sentence.

"And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm Reliance on the Protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor."

- The Declaration of Independence

And for a CT-related history of the Declaration, check out CT Local Politics, then scroll up. It's a short, but very interesting, account of CT and America's "First President."
