July 4th is a very special day on the American calendar as this marks the day thirteen colonies claimed independence from their mother country as it were, and the nation of America came into its own.
It is no wonder then that this day is celebrated with much fanfare, huge sales, family get together.
Many people on this day make sure they possess a grill to have an outdoor relaxing barbecue, have hammocks in readiness with blankets to spend the lovely Summer weather outside in the garden, park or on public grassy areas.
Picnics are the order of the day.
Apart from the celebration there are usually enormous sales leading up to the 4th July where clothes, furniture, outdoor equipment, sports ware and other items are discounted for all to be benefited in the remembrance of liberty and the price paid for it!
