What really did happen to the signers of the
Declaration of Independence? There are lots of versions out there, so it’s
interesting to read Snopes take to separate fact from fiction. Fascinating
article and worth the time to read.
What part, if any did your town, family or
state play in the Revolutionary War? Just as Snopes takes time to find out what
the truth is, are the stories accurate?
Make this 4th of July one of
exploring local history. Check out the oldest cemeteries in your town. Is a
Revolutionary soldier buried there? If so, consider cleaning the headstone, putting a flag on the grave or take a picture and make sure it’s included on
Find a Grave.
For lots of other 4th of July
activities, check out the previous years Take a Breaks, which includes numerous ideas
for decorations, foods and activities.
