America celebrated its birthday July 4^th.

From Boston to New York to Atlanta to Aurora, Ohio (with the Olesky family), red, white and blue were the colors of the day.

Family and frolicking were the goals for the 238^th anniversary celebration.

If you have jpeg format photos of YOUR July 4^th family gathering, email them to John Olesky at jo4wvu@neo.rr.com with full identifications of everyone in the photos, and their Monongah High connections, if any.
