I know, I know, I know. I’m a little late to the party. Happy Birthday, America – the greatest country on God’s Green Earth!
We hope you all enjoyed the 4th of July, despite the oppressive heat and humidity. Sweeney’s sponsored a local Girl Scout Troop in Bensenville’s parade. The girls did a great job decorating the truck.
