Happy (?) Fourth of July

Yesterday I was catching up on every one's blogs.
For the fourth, they had a picture of a flag and a quote or something.
"Oh geez!" I thought, "I haven't done mine yet!"
I don't want to take America for granted; I should at least honor it somehow!
So I set out some history books with cool covers of different points in history.
A Bible, a little antique church, an old flag and the picture of the current U.S. president.
I wanted to show what America is all about. What it started on, what happened in history, and to remind people to pray for our president.
So I made a little collage, and took a picture.
One hour later...
I'm frustrated and I only have 1 picture left on my card.
I walked away,
sadly, It could not give justice.
(I wonder if it was the lighting?)
