If I may be so bold as to project my professional opinion, I believe that America is the most patriotic country in the world. This is not more prevalent than on Independence Day. I've done many parades in my day but they all pale in comparison to the Millcreek 4th of July Parade here in Erie. The crowds are always tremendous and the volume of sights to see in the parade itself is staggering. Thanks to all of you for such a warm welcome and for cheering us as we celebrated our freedom. ~Captain Jack Sparrow
