The 4th of July was a day of celebration in my small community of Duncanville, Texas. Like thousands of cities, towns, and villages across America, we marked the day with a festive parade and fireworks.
For over a decade, I have been asked to drive a float in the parade for the Daughters of the American Revolution’s Old Chisholm Trail Chapter. Nine Daughters, two children, and two retired military officers participated in the parade.
