Red, White and Bluegill by John Dawson of BigBluegill

Every once in a while I just like to kick my feet up, and think about what a great thing it is to live in the United States. Fishing, fireworks, grilling, hanging out with friends...it's all part of the American dream. Thanks to all of you BBG fans out there. This is an awesome site! Happy 4th of July.
