Share Your Independence Day Photos Here

You have a camera phone, so use it.

As Americans across the globe celebrate the Fourth of July in their respective time zones, Patch wants to know how you're celebrating your holiday. Chances are you're playing close to home, and that's fine—but we want to be part of your fun.

Upload your photo to this story, and let's create a neighborhood party, whether it's a picture of dad giving the thumb's up over burgers on the grill, or Junior digging into a big slice of watermelon, or Mom sittig on a blanket waiting for fireworks to begin, or the American flag that flies on your street. Or maybe you've got a great fireworks photo you want to display—go ahead and cut loose.

it's your day off, celebrate, but share it with the rest of us. After all, this may be a holiday that celebrates our independence, but it also makes us united.

Let the good times, and the photo-sharing, begin!

Editor's Note: If we get enough photos, maybe we'll put them into a music video. Just because you have the day off doesn't mean the Patch staff does.
