Happy Birthday America.
Growing up I always had a very romantic view of the US and it has never left me to be honest. It formed from a childhood of reading books set in the US to watching American TV shows and movies. I can still remember the excitement I felt before my first trip stateside in 2015. I've only scratched the surface of your country (Vegas, NYC and Boston) but the mere thought of going to the US gets me all giddy and excited. Everything from the cars to the food to the buildings and more feeds into my inner child and his dreams of what America represented to a kid growing up in a small town in rural Ireland.
America (like every other country on this planet) has its problems but for me it will always hold a special allure and Boston in particular has stolen a piece of my heart.
I look forward to visiting again and maybe next time with a son or daughter to share it with also.
Happy 4th of July Bruins fans.
