I'm not sure if you are aware, but we have a pretty big Birthday party happening this weekend. The United States of America is turning 250 years old. It's quit an accomplishment, and no matter which side you find yourself, I think we can all agree that it's good to be an American.

While each state will celebrate, here in Montana there are several different festivities planned including something special right here in Bozeman at the Bozeman Public Library which is located at 626 East Main Street.
