"To be a Virginian either by Birth, Marriage, Adoption, or even on one's Mother's side, is an Introduction to any state in the Union, a Passport to any Foreign Country, and a Benediction from Above."

America

O beautiful for spacious skies,

for amber waves of grain,

for purple mountain majesties,

above the fruited plain!

America, America!










God shed His grace on thee.


And crown thy good with brotherhood










From sea







to shining sea!




Happy Independence Day, everyone!
