July 1st ~ Canada Day
In honor of all my blogging friends
who live in Canada I wish you a belated
Happy Canada Day!
Canada became a self-governing country July 1, 1867.
As with Independence Day here in the US,
the Canadian celebration is one of pride to celebrate
Canada's heritage and nationalism.

July 4th ~ US Independence Day
Known simply as the Fourth of July,
this US holiday is a highlight of summer here in
the US when we commemorate the birth of our country.
Neighborhood parades, picnics, cookouts, and fireworks
are traditionally held to celebrate the day.

July 10 ~ Teddy Bears' Picnic Day
"If you go down in the woods today,
your're sure of a big surprise . . ."
Yes, this is the day the teddy bears gather for
"marvellous things to eat and wonderful games to play."
Grab your favorite teddy bear and celebrate
with a picnic of your own.
Quotes from the lyrics of Teddy Bear's Picnic, Jimmy Kennedy 1932
Bastille Day ~ July 14th ~ La Fête Nationale
(Celebrated Saturday July 9th in Austin this year .)
This French holiday commemorates the anniversary
of the storming of the Bastille on this date in 1789.
Like the 4th of July here in the US,
Bastille Day is a time to celebrate independence;
the storming of the Bastille represents the
beginning of the French Revolution.
