Whatever it is, make sure you take a few to enjoy the second half of summer before it's gone!

The 4th of July is widely known as the birth date of America. But did you know that our national anthem started out as a poem titled "The Defence of Fort M'Henry"? The poem by Francis Scott Key was printed in newspapers and people started referring to it as "The Star- Spangled Banner". Eventually, the first stanza was set to the music of a popular English drinking tune called “To Anacreon in Heaven". In 1931, it was adopted as our national anthem.

Happy Birthday, America.

The Star-Spangled Banner
Oh, say can you see by the dawn's early light
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
