My parents used to belong to a camera club. There were about 10 couples who met every month at someone's house and brought slides to show on some theme. One of the popular themes was to illustrate songs (like "My favorite things"). I reached back in my memory to illustrate this hymn for my United States page.
Some people think that this should be the National Anthem instead of the Star Spangled Banner. It is much easier to sing.

My philosophy for VT is to put the photographs and tips in the most accurate location. But for this page, I've deviated from that a little bit.

For instance I have some pictures of the native or original or common United States foods.
