Happy Independence Day! To help you celebrate, I present here Irving Berlin’s “Song of Freedom” from the movie “Holiday Inn” (1942), sung by the inimitable Bing Crosby. Enjoy!

My family went to see the Glen Oak Park fireworks last night as usual, and they did not disappoint. We’re all looking forward to Sky Concert tonight on the riverfront. I’d like to wish all my readers a safe and happy Fourth of July!
