REFLECTIONS ON THE FOURTH OF JULY WEEKEND

I was driving through one of the oldest parts of town today. The streets are lined with brownstone buildings from the turn of the century. It's not considered to be a "nice" section of town anymore. But it's filled with families from all over the world.


One old brownstone perched on the corner has a muslim family living in it. Today they had a small inflatable pool with three little girls playing in it...wearing swimsuits & headscarves!


It seems that they have created thier own separate peace between cultures.


AND THAT'S WHAT AMERICA'S ALL ABOUT!
