Happy Fourth of July

THERE IS SOMETHING VERY SPECIAL ABOUT  SEEING OUR LARGE COUNTRY FLAG UNFURLING HIGH IN THE CANYONS  OF OUR HOME TOWN!  

THIS CERTAINLY GAVE ME GREAT PATRIOTIC FEELINGS!                    

 TO CELEBRATE THE FLAG,
A CHILDREN'S CHOIR CALLED "ONE VOICE"
CAME FROM SLC TO SING ABOUT OUR COUNTRY!

HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY
