I am looking forward to Monthly Musings this month and not for the reasons why you might think. Even though I am the host, I could use a little inspiration myself when it comes to the Fourth of July and America 250 this year. When I was drafting the topics for Monthly Musings earlier this year, a focus on America 250 was a must. Now that we are weeks away, I am a little stumped for how I want to celebrate. It could be that I have my second sinus infection in as many months. A sinus infection definetly gets in the way of any sparks of inspiration.
Since I seem to need a burst of creativity for America 250, I am glad Monthly Musings is today. Hopefully the writers that link up with my can help get the ball rolling on my Fourth of July plans. I will do my Best, despite my annoying congestion to share some red, white and blue with you as well.
1. Are you excited about America 250?
I love the idea that our country is 250 years old. It is such a cool thing. I am struggling a little bit because I feel that because I work in Washington, DC and l live right near Mount Vernon, I should somehow be more excited about America 2501.
There are definitely some cool events over the next few weeks. We were supposed to go see Martina McBride this evening on the National Mall as part of the concert series to celebrate the Semiquincentennial but things went sideways when the artists thought they had signed onto one type of event but it was shaping up to be somethings else. No Martina tonight. I am sad because we had a fun group going and Running Daddy has never seen her live. Welcome to what it is like living in Washington, DC.
