Today is Columbus Day, marking the 521st anniversary since Christopher Columbus landed on the shores of the New World, kicking off a succession of events that ultimately lead to the formation of the United States and nations throughout North and South America.

We hope you have a terrific day, and take a moment to reflect on the cultural heritage and diversity that has flourished in this land in the last half-millennium.
