No, not the Statue of Liberty, but a landmark in New York City just the same. For the past 85 years, the "house that Ruth built" or Yankee Stadium has seen many baseball immortals step onto its field.

Tonight marks the last game in that stadium.

Think of it, 85 years in one place. Oh, there have been some cosmetic changes, but its the same stadium - until tonight when the last home game ever is played there.

Whether you like the Yankees or not, or whether you like baseball or not, it is part of Americana.

Look at the number of movies, plays, and books that have been made about baseball and some of its legends or aspiring stars (fictional or real), and many have been set in Yankee Stadium or featured the New York Yankees as part of the story.

Goodnight old friend. Goodbye.

Take a look at the posts today - happy, upbeat, gentle, congratulatory, celebratory.

It's a great complexion for the site.

Enjoy this truly American holiday (other countries may have their own Independence Day, but no one else has the 4^th of July).

Reflect on all of our liberties and freedoms.

That's right, historically, July 2, 1776, is the day the Continental Congress declared independence from Great Britain. We celebrate Independence Day on July 4^th because that's the day the paper we're familiar with was actually adopted, but the resolution passed on July 2^nd.

So, we really have 2 days to celebrate the actions of our founding fathers.
