Samuel Francis Smith penned the words to “My Country Tis of Thee” almost two centuries ago, yet the idea of freedom ringing from every mountainside still echoes loud and strong in the American spirit. At Mountain Lakes Insurance, we value our independence and we hope you’ll celebrate with us this Fourth of July.
Have a safe and happy Fourth of July!
