To the Editor:

What did you do on the 4th of July? It probably depended on many personal factorssuch aswhether you were on vacation, had family and friends visiting, your location, or perhaps how you feel about this particular national holiday. Here at the seashore it was time to go to the beach or take a boat ride, fire up the grill and watch the sky for the upcoming evening fireworks display. The great thing about the United States of America is that we are free to make our choices and decisions.
