Dear E-pistle subscriber,

With the Fourth of July weekend coming up, I’d been giving lots of thought to Independence Day, and the way we celebrate it – what the holiday has become for most of us, verses its original meaning.

So I wrote a column about Independence Day, and I’m excited to say it is being published in today’s edition of The Fredericksburg Free Lance-Star.

So – as this week’s E-pistle message – here is the link to the column: I hope you like it!

See you Sunday,
